When the relationship has been tense, it has resulted in violence, controls, and barriers at the border, making it a source of division and conflict. However, when the relationship has been good, the border has become open, invisible, and criss-crossed with connections, symbolizing the close ties between the two countries. The UK's exit from the European Union has brought the issue of managing the Irish border to the forefront of international attention, and the solution found in the UK-EU Withdrawal Agreement has given the border a globally unique status. This book, written by leading social scientists, offers a concise and up-to-date overview of the Irish border, exploring its historical, political, social, and economic dimensions. It provides insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with managing the border in the post-Brexit era and offers practical recommendations for policymakers and stakeholders. The book is designed to be short, sharp, and compelling, making it an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of the Irish border and its impact on the wider world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 268g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 154 x 216 x 13 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781529770643\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Katy Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102406963450,"sku":"9781529770643","price":56.64,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646171646831_book.jpg?v=1646919870","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/what-do-we-know-and-what-should-we-do-about-the-irish-border-9781529770643","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
