Since the UK's withdrawal from the EU, the constititional position of Northern Ireland within the Union has endured an unusual level of attention.Lisa Claire Whitten has written a concise history of Northern Ireland through its pivotal moments: the 1920-72 Unionist-led governments, the following 30 years of bitter conflicts, the 1998 Belfast/Good Friday Agreement, and the 2016 referendum on the UK's membership of the EU. Considering each of the moment in the broader setting of UK constititional norms and narratives, she addresses the exceptional constitutional characteristics of Northern Ireland and ways in which these have often resulted in a 'blindspot' analysis of the Union.This short book also considers the implications of Brexit and the constitutional impacts and shifts it has brought to Northern Ireland and discuss the possible constitutional repercussions.
