| Итог: | For a peace process in Ireland to succeed it will require an active transition away from the underlying causes of conflict—not just the partition of the country, but the inequalities of opportunities and employment between the communities in Northern Ireland. This requires the restructuring of existing unequal arrangements.

Otherwise any type of future transition process risks grinding to a halt. |
