About this product
Product Information
Can this deeply divided island ever be united? Malachi O'Doherty's ground-breaking new book explores this salient question and many more. Considering centuries of history alongside contemporary issues, he looks for answers by talking to those who know the island best: those who live there. O'Doherty speaks to politicians, journalists, writers, lawyers, sportspeople, and residents of both the North and the Republic, to produce the most comprehensive picture yet of a divided nation and its uncertain future. This book asks the big political questions about the prospects of reconciliation between North and South, but it also goes behind the upfront attitudes of parties and factions to ask what really drives people's sense of who they are, and whether a more inclusive national identity can be reached. The Irish nation still defines itself by the legacy of a freedom struggle, a legacy cherished and celebrated by major political parties while at the same time aspiring to absorb a people and a region which is determinedly British. Can two parts of a partitioned island put that legacy behind them, and if so, how would they jointly define Ireland's sovereign national character after that?

Reviews
'This book will quickly become essential reading for anyone who speaks about Ireland, whether in Belfast, Dublin, London, Brussels or Washington DC. Immensely readable, you will either be constantly nodding in recognition or be drawn into a greater complexity than you imagined. O'Doherty's emerging Ireland is a fascinating place.' --John, Lord Alderdice 'Engaging, illuminating and never afraid to challenge shibboleths on all sides, Can Ireland Be One? unpicks the complexities of the issues set to dominate any border poll in Northern Ireland. Malachi O'Doherty expertly weaves together reportage, political and cultural history and his own family roots in this lucid assessment of what's at stake for people on both sides of the Irish border.' --Mark Devenport 'A riveting read! By skillfully de-mythologising the narratives upon which our conflict has thrived, Malachi challenges us, whatever our intuitive or inherited position on Irish unity, to objectively consider the realties central to this debate. How can we accommodate the legitimate aspiration of some and avoid the redistribution of resentment of others? A dispassionate contribution to a conversation which will increasingly demand our attention. A conversation which must be about our future, rather than our past.' --Harold Good 'As a border poll on Irish unity has progressed from possible, to likely, to certain, As he notes, the key issues (particularly that of an Irish identity) need addressed and resolved long in advance of any constitutional reboot.' --Alex Kane 'A well-considered, deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration on that timely question: Can Ireland be One? O'Doherty seamlessly moves between Northern Ireland's complicated past and its potential futures from many perspectives, including the often-overlooked new migrants and historically marginalized people. This lively and engaging text cuts through the propaganda to demonstrate why it's complicated.' --Laura McAtackney 'A captivating examination of what it means to be Irish, or to feel Irish. Infused with his own personal journey throughout, O'Doherty's timely work assesses the prospects for Irish unity, amidst increasing momentum for a border-poll, courtesy of Brexit. In this thought-provoking work, O'Doherty delves into his own 'undecideness' and leaves the reader pondering the deciding factors that will be foremost in voters' minds as they eventually make their historic mark for or against Irish unity. ' --Dr Marisa McGlinchey, Assistant Professor of Political Science, Coventry University. 'A salutary puncture wound to the easy myth that a United Ireland benignly lies just around the corner and that the complexities of British-Irish identities can wished away.' --Kevin Toolis
