Product Details

Praise

“Comprehensively accounts for the evolution, rise and current decline of ‘Ulster’ unionism and its settler-colonial interaction with British politics.”
—Niall Meehan, author of The Embers of Revisionism

“A timely, and hugely informative perspective on the events in the north of Ireland surrounding Brexit, Stormont, and political unionism … should be required reading for anybody seeking to understand the movement of unionist tectonic plates in recent years.”
—Chris Hazzard, Sinn Féin MP for South Down

“Provides an incisive and up to date analysis of the history and ideology of unionism that is indispensable to any debate about the future of Ireland and its relationship with Britain. Geoff is the leading thinker of our time on the role and future of unionism in all its forms.”
—John McDonnell, MP

“After a brief moment in the Westminster spotlight, Northern Irish unionism finds itself once more pushed back to the margins, but anyone who wants to understand the likely fate of the United Kingdom needs to study this frequently misunderstood political force in its own right. Geoff Bell’s detailed account of modern unionist politics shows that the short-term alliance with British Conservativism after 2016 could not bridge a widening chasm between the political cultures of London and Belfast. Bell also demonstrates that for all its professions of neutrality, the British political class remains a partisan actor in Irish affairs.”
—Daniel Finn, author of Another Man’s Terrorist

“Powerful … I agree with much of what Bell says … A committed supporter of reunification … [Bell] has written extensively, and with disdain, about the history of unionism.”
—Max Hastings, Sunday Times
