Study on consensus democracy model through power-sharing and Social Change in the Northern Ireland conflict

该项目旨在明确贝尔法斯特协议中和平进程和权力分享结构的背景，并研究贝尔法斯特协议后北爱尔兰的社会变化。这是本项目的一个目的，并提供在世界政治冲突中建立和平的可能性，并为此制定一种方法和标准。在这个项目中，首先，有可能明确由统一党和民族主义者组织的政党在北爱尔兰政治冲突中的行为模式和政治策略。特别是，“新爱尔兰论坛”（1983-1984）提出的民族主义战略的权威重述可以被视为传统的民族主义解释，而不是将英国的存在视为北爱尔兰问题的核心，而是内部冲突的解释。其次，本项目通过研究单一可转让投票的选举模式和2003年北爱尔兰议会选举中主要政党的政治行为模式，明确了贝尔法斯特协议的方向和北爱尔兰议会采用的权力分享模式的背景。2003年11月26日举行的议会选举标志着1998年贝尔法斯特协议的危机。这次选举的结果似乎反映了北爱尔兰新教徒和天主教徒之间的社区冲突，并在地理上将北爱尔兰分为新教/统一派和天主教/民族主义两部分。该项目是通过在北爱尔兰天主教和新教社区定期举行的实地考察建立起来的。今年以后有必要继续在这一地区进行实地调查，获取后方资料。

This project seeks to make clear context of the peace process and structure of power-sharing in the Belfast agreement and to research social change after the Belfast agreement in Northern Ireland. It is a purpose of this project and to offer possibility of peace-making in political conflicts of the world and to develop a method and criterion for it. In this project, firstly, it was possible to make clear behavior patterns and political strategies of political parties organised by Unionist and Nationalist related in the political conflict of Northern Ireland. Especially, the authoritative restatement of the nationalist strategy presented by the "New Ireland Forum" (1983-1984) can be regarded as not traditional nationalist interpretation that sees the British presence as being at the heart of the Northern Ireland problem but rather as the internal-conflict interpretation. Secondly, 'this project made clear a direction of the Belfast agreement and context of a model of power-sharing adopted in Northern Ireland Assembly through researching a electoral model of the single transferable vote and a pattern of political behavior of major parties for vote-catching in the 2003 election of Northern Ireland Assembly. This assembly election held on 26 November 2003 marked the crisis of the 1998 Belfast Agreement. It is seemed that the result of this election reflected a communal conflict between Protestant people and Catholic people in Northei~n Ireland and geographically divided Northern Ireland into two parts between Protestant/Unionist people's area and Catholic/Nationalist people's area. This project is established' by fieldwork that is held regularly in Catholic and Protestant communities of Northern Ireland. It is necessary to continue to get rear documents through fieldwork in this area after this year.
