  • Les Protestants En Irlande Du Nord Face À L'europe
    Les protestants en Irlande du nord face à l'Europe Elisabeth Picard Pour la grande majorité des observateurs et des analystes de la crise en Irlande du Nord, les notions de minorité opprimée, de lutte armée et de terrorisme se rattachent à la communauté nationaliste (irlandaise) catholique. Combinées d'une façon plus ou moins ex licite, la sympathie envers la culture celtique ressentie à la fois comme authentique et comme héroïque, et l'horreur devant les violences perpétrées par l'IRA incitent fréquemment à réduire la question irlandaise à la revendication nationaliste. Il n'est pourtant que de se reporter aux données démographiques pour comprendre que la question d'Irlande du Nord est aussi (et demain, surtout ?) celle de l'avenir de 60 % de la population de la province : environ un million de sujets du Royaume-Uni de diverses dénominations protestantes, qui ne constituent par contre que 20% de la population totale de l'île d'Irlande, majoritairement républicaine et catholique. Après cinquante années de gouvernement sans partage de l'Irlande du Nord les Unionistes protestants, qui avaient obtenu en 1920 le maintien de six des neuf comtés de l'Ulster au sein du Royaume-Uni, ont perdu en mars 1972 leur autonomie provinciale au profit d'une administration directe par Londres. Or, le début des "troubles" (c'est ainsi qu'on appelle depuis vingt-cinq ans la guerre en Irlande du Nord), l'arrivée de l'armée britannique et la reprise en main de la province sont advenus dans la période même de l'entrée simultanée du Royaume-Uni et de la république d'Irlande dans la Communauté européenne (janvier 1973).

    Heritage, History & Memory Project (Workshop 4) The Road to Sunningdale and the Ulster Workers’ Strike of May 1974 A presentation by Dr. Aaron Edwards followed by a general discussion compiled by Michael Hall ISLAND 116 PAMPHLETS 1 Published July 2019 by Island Publications 132 Serpentine Road, Newtownabbey BT36 7JQ © Michael Hall 2019 [email protected] http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/islandpublications The Fellowship of the Messines Association gratefully acknowledge the support they have received from the Heritage Lottery Fund for their Heritage, History & Memory Project and the associated publications Printed by Regency Press, Belfast 2 Introduction The Fellowship of the Messines Association was formed in May 2002 by a diverse group of individuals from Loyalist, Republican and Trade Union backgrounds, united in their realisation of the necessity to confront sectarianism in our society as a necessary means of realistic peace-building. The project also engages young people and new citizens on themes of citizenship and cultural and political identity. In 2018 the Association initiated its Heritage, History & Memory Project. For the inaugural launch of this project it was decided to focus on the period of the 1960s, the Civil Rights Movement, and the early stages of the ‘Troubles’. To accomplish this, it was decided to host a series of six workshops, looking at different aspects of that period. The format for each workshop would comprise a presentation by a respected commentator/historian, which would then be followed by a general discussion involving people from diverse political backgrounds, who would be encouraged to share not only their thoughts on the presentation, but their own experiences and memories of the period under discussion.

  • British Policy Options in Northern Ireland: Alternative Routes to The
    BRITISH POLICY OPTIONS IN NORTHERN IRELAND: "ALTERNATIVE ROUTES TO THE CEMETERY?" Michae/L. Moodie andFrank T.J. Bray On March 5, 1976 Mr. Merlyn Rees, the British Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, dissolved Ulster's Constitutional Convention after ten months of negligible progress. Plans for the convention had been announced by the British Government in July 1974 in the wake of a Protestant general strike that shut down the province and signalled the collapse of the Sunningdale Agreement between Britain and the Irish Republic which was to have been the blueprint for the resolution of Ulster's problems. The purpose of the proposed convention was to provide an opportunity for the people of Northern Ireland themselves to devise a settlement to the raging conflict. At the convention, however, neither the Protestant nor the Catholic representatives were willing to compromise. The majority report, based on the Protestants' refusal to share any governmental power with the Catholics, was deemed unacceptable by the British Government, and the convention was dissolved. It was obvious that a new British policy was required. The inability of Ulster's convention to devise a workable structure for the resolution of the problems of the province represents one more in a long line of failures of British policy toward Northern Ireland., Despite its lack of success, however, Britain remains, in many ways, the central and essential actor in the Ulster conflict. At the same time, it is increasingly reluctant to become further involved in the dispute. Thus, London's decisions in the coming months will be a crucial determinant of Northern Ireland's future.

  • W the Convention
    v!~GuA~D BuIiaErml No. 2 MARCH 1976 THE ENI) (W THE CONVENTION The Convention failed in its second phase to gain the necessary agreement which would have resulted in Westminster agreeing to legislate for the establishment of a Government and Parliament of Northern Ireland. The reason for that failure lies mainly with the refusal of the U. U.U.C. to sincerely seek agreement on their own proposals as spelt out in the Convention Report. ‘Other parties too must bear the responsibility for failure by their refusal to clearly state that agreement on Voluntary Coalition between parties in the Convention was the only way in which the Report could have found widespread acceptance and therefore made the Convention’s conclusion a success. The Vanguard Unionist Party can feel justitlably proud of their four Convention Members, William Craig, Glenn Barr, David Trirnble and George Green, who used the final twoday debate in the Convention to argue constructively and responsibly the case for a Referendum on Voluntary Coal- ition. In a fiial debate marred by the personality attacks on our own Convention Members and characterised by the refusal of the U. U.U.C. to debate the real issues at stake, our four Convention Members stated clearly the only way the Convention could transform impending failure into success. In this March Edition of “Vanguard Bulletin” we print extracts from the speeches. of the Van- guard Convention Members - BILL CRAIGS’ SPEECH It is with a great sense of responsibility that I move the Mr. West would do well to refresh his memory and Fnt Amendment because it is evident to me that to-day, go back to the debate at Westminster on 12 January and to-morrow presumably, we will be reaching a point where he will fmd that the Seeretary of State said: where the Ulster people will have no means of effectively “Provided that the necessary agreement can be “ taking decisions as to the future Constitution of their own reached, the Government accept in principle devolving Province and in particular its institutions of government.

  • THE ULSTER DEFENCE ASSOCIATION: PARAMILITARIES and POLITICS by Arthur Aughey and Colin Mcllheney
    THE ULSTER DEFENCE ASSOCIATION: PARAMILITARIES AND POLITICS by Arthur Aughey and Colin Mcllheney Introduction Throughout 1981 political life in Northern Ireland has been dominated by events at the Maze prison. To date ten Republican prisoners [members of the Provisional Irish Republican Army and Irish National Liberation Army (INLA)] have died on hunger strike and five more have been given medical treatment and nourishment after relatives intervened at crucial stages in their fast. Outside the prison the two communities have further polarised as evidenced by recent polling. The May local government elections witnessed a further decimation of the already thinly-populated middle ground as the "political status" debate raged on. The trend was best illustrated in the highly charged atmosphere of the two by-elections to the Westminster parliament in Fermanagh and South Tyrone, a constituency legendary for its rigidly religious voting patterns and where in a ritualised game it is assumed that many individuals will try to vote more than once. In May, in a straight contest between R. Sands, the Anti-H-Block candidate, and H. West, Official Unionist, Sands won by a majority of 1,446 votes. After Sands had died, the August by-election involved six candidates, but the only two who mattered were O. Carron, Prisoners Candidate, and K. Magennis, Official Unionist. Again, it was the nationalist who won, this time by 2,230 votes. The election of Bobby Sands was a considerable boost to the IRA. The reasons for his victory were complex and varied. They
