However, relatively little empirical research has addressed the potential effects of external economic growth to the reduction of structural inequalities, its effect on policy making and intergroup reconciliation, and its prospocts for sustaining negotiated political settlments. This article focuses on the perceptions of upper- and middle-tier elites, and grassroots constituents on the delivery and distribution of external economic aid to Northern Ireland through the International Fund for Ireland and the European Union Special Support Programme for Peace and ReconciliationItem type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
