The book analyses the relationship between crime and conflict in Northern Ireland since the establishment of the Northern Irish state in 1921. Despite the vast research literature that focuses on Northern Ireland’s political divisions and the violence of the ‘Troubles’, the relationship between these issues and crime has received much less attention.
