About this product

Product Information

The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) dominated Northern Ireland's politics for most of the twentieth century. Its leader, David Trimble, a Nobel Peace Prize for reaching the Good Friday/Belfast Agreement in 1998 - a peace deal attracting international acclaim. Yet since that high point, the UUP has been in decline. Written by the same team which authored an award-winning study of the Democratic Unionist Party, The Ulster Unionist Party: Country Before Party? draws upon unique access. The book includes interviews with its five most recent leaders and uses the first-ever survey of its members, looking at who they are and what they believe. This is an indispensable volume for students of political parties in divided societies.
