: Can Sean and John Live in Peace? : an American Legal Perspective Carol Daugherty Rasnic Brandylane Publishers Inc , 2003 - 329 pages , 2003 - Political Science 0 Reviews Northern Ireland: Can Sean and John Live in Peace? explores the reasons for Northern Ireland's so-called "Troubles." In a compelling and detailed narrative, Professor Rasnic addresses the two primary causes of the conflict-religion and politics-and the source of response to the Troubles-the law. While serving as a Fulbright Distinguished Professor of Law at Queen's Belfast, she experienced the moods, hopes, and fears of those who have endured the atrocities. Interspersed with the author's personal interviews with many of the principals in the peace talks and vignettes that recall her childhood and adolescent years growing up in a small Southern town, Northern Ireland provides a clearer understanding of the essence of what has caused-and continues to cause-so much tragedy and grief in this beautiful province.
