Description

25 years after the Good Friday Agreement, Northern Ireland lives in an imperfect peace. There has been a dramatic reduction in violence since the worst of the Troubles, which claimed more than 3,600 lives. But Northern Ireland continues to struggle with political stalemates, economic despair, and paramilitary threats. Can the Good Friday Agreement continue to keep the peace?
