Religion, Identity and Politics in Northern Ireland

Religion, Identity and Politics in Northern Ireland

By:"Claire Mitchell"
Published on 2006 by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.

There has been increased interest in the relationship between religion, identity and politics in modern societies. Building on this debate, Claire Mitchell presents a challenging analysis of religion in contemporary Northern Ireland, arguing that religion is not merely a marker of ethnicity and that it continues to provide many of the meanings of identity, community and politics. Drawing on a range of unique interview material, this book traces how individuals and groups in Northern Ireland have absorbed religious types of cultural knowledge, belonging and morality.
