I am completing my PhD thesis at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison on "The Anglo-Irish Agreement and the Conflict
in Northern Ireland: Problems and Theories of Cultural
Pluralism." My thesis examines strategies for resolving, or at
least mitigating the violent effects of the current conflict and
argues that consociational structures offer the best
possibilities for long-term peace and inter-communal
reconciliation.
