eBook
Civic identity and public space
2019
Overview
Civic identity and public space , focussing on Belfast, and
bringing together the work of a historian and two social
scientists, offers a new perspective on the sometimes lethal
conflicts over parades, flags and other issues that continue to
disrupt political life in Northern Ireland. It examines the
emergence during the nineteenth century of the concept of public
space and the development of new strategies for its regulation, the
establishment, the new conditions created by the emergence in 1920
of a Northern Ireland state, of a near monopoly of public space
enjoyed by Protestants and unionists, and the break down of that
monopoly in more recent decades. Today policy makers and
politicians struggle to devise a strategy for the management of
public space in a divided city, while endeavouring to promote a new
sense of civic identity that will transcend long-standing sectarian
and political divisions.
