Through a series of in-depth interviews with over ninety radical republican activists from diverse groups and currents within dissident republicanism, the book offers a timely and insightful assessment of the political significance and potential of these groups. Contrary to popular perceptions, the book reveals that dissident republicanism is far more than a mere remnant of traditionalist irreconcilables left behind by Gerry Adams' entry into mainstream politics. Rather, it emerges as a dynamic and evolving force shaped by contemporary realities. By delving into the intricacies of dissident republicanism, the book sheds light on the emerging forms of political challenge in an age of austerity and increasing political instability internationally. It emphasizes the need to understand these groups to grasp the broader political landscape and the potential for change in Ireland and beyond. This thought-provoking work is a valuable contribution to the study of Irish politics and society, providing a nuanced and empathetic perspective on a complex and often misunderstood movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 548g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 166 x 240 x 17 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780719096976\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marisa McGlinchey","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44099568206074,"sku":"9780719096976","price":71.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/23af8eb161e3dcf2a16804aca05fa3bc.jpg?v=1625196543","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/unfinished-business-the-politics-of-dissident-irish-republicanism","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
