- Summary:
- This book examines the evolution and current significance of the parading tradition in Ireland. Since 1995, confrontations over parades have existed side by side with the Northern Ireland peace process. The most bitter of these have occurred over the Drumcree church parade at Portafdown and the Relief of Derry parades. Using a range of historical and anthropological perspectives, the book traces the parading tradition from the 17th century to the present.
