From the Publisher

Varieties of Irishness
Cultural Traditions in Northern Ireland provides insight into the current debate on the importance of different cultural traditions in the community. This volume, Varieties of Irishness, records the proceedings of the Cultural Traditions Group Conference at which individuals, drawn from a wide range of backgrounds and interests, debated the role of diverse traditions in education, communications, the arts and local life. Recommendations were made to government for the development of projects in all these areas.

In plural societies, where the variety of cultural traditions has the potential for fuelling antagonisms, the accommodation of differences is crucial. This book suggests ways, both institutional and informal, in which knowledge and appreciation of different traditions, can help remove fear, engender confidence and enrich community life.
