Northern Protestants--an unsettled people

"Largely regarded by the outside world in a negative light, many Protestants in Northern Ireland feel beleaguered, misunderstood and outmanoeuvred. But to what extent are Protestants undermined by a sectarianism that few of them acknowledge - including perhaps an ambivalence to loyalist violence?" "Within the overall Protestant community there is a wide diversity of views, from hardline defenders of the Union to a surprisingly large number who would welcome an end to the notion of a Protestant state for a Protestant people. With the current peace process founded on the awareness that there can be no resolution to the conflict without the consent of both communities, a deeper understanding of the range and complexity of Protestant attitudes has never been more essential."--BOOK JACKET
