Relative to its size Northern Ireland is possibly the most heavily researched area on earth; hundreds of books and thousands of articles have been published since the current troubles began in the mid 1960s. John Whyte had been studying Northern Ireland since the mid-1960s.

In Part II he discusses ideological interpretations of the Northern Ireland problem, from unionist and nationalist toMarxist. In the final section of the book he surveys the various solutions that have been proposed and looks critically at what the mass of research has achieved.
