Abstract

In the late 20th century, most civil wars occurred in underdeveloped countries. Yet a smallnumber of cases deviated from this pattern, most notably the British province of NorthernIreland. This article is an attempt to integrate this apparently deviant case into the recentcomparative literature on civil war through a close examination of the mechanisms thatproduced variation in the modes and timing of violence over time and across space. It isargued that the violence of Northern Ireland can be best understood via an insurgency theoryof civil war.
