Reviews

""Adrian Guelke has written an important book comparing the peace settlements and political transformations in Northern Ireland and South Africa. He goes about the task in distinctive fashion, tracing the history of comparison of the two cases and the intermittent linkages between them, while highlighting the changing international context… He argues that Northern Ireland and South Africa are two deeply divided societies, with deep set horizontal inequalities, and politicisation of social divisions. But their settlements differed radically, with different sorts of problems and different roles for reconciliation."" Jennifer Todd, University College Dublin, Ireland, writing in Irish Political Studies, 2023 “This book provides a synthesis of the valuable contributions that Professor Guelke has made to the study of modern South Africa and Northern Ireland. It is lucidly written and will be of use to students and scholars alike.” Robert McNamara, Ulster University, UK, writing in Utafiti 18, 2023
