The above links contain information on key issues that have been central to the Northern Ireland Conflict. A similar approach has been adopted for Key Events. It is hoped that these two components, together with the Background Information on the Northern Ireland conflict, will be helpful to those researching, teaching, or studying the Troubles.
In contrast to the section on Key Events, this one examines issues that have been at the heart of the Northern Ireland 'Troubles' over a long period of time.
