    Abstract

    The historiography of Northern Ireland is dominated by the violent Troubles that broke out in 1968 and continued for the following thirty years. The intensity and duration of the conflict were exceptional in the context of modern Irish history, and the conflict has attracted intensive academic attention across a wide range of disciplines. It became, as was sometimes caustically remarked, the most intensively studied conflict of them all, providing a highly developed and easily accessible English-speaking research site for the study of organized violence.
