Abstract |
|
|
| This investigation of the transformation of nationalism in Northern Ireland by Sinn Féin is very complex to interpret; this is so with the fact that Sinn Féin is comprehensively intertwined within the historical narrative presented through the study of nationalism in Northern Ireland. This thesis addresses the critical question of how the politics of Sinn Féin and its ideological perspective on nationalism has been adapted to the focus on the changing political atmosphere in Northern Ireland and its impact on the power-sharing government. Furthermore, this thesis will evaluate the transformation of nationalism undertaken by Sinn Féin. It is suggested that the transformation of nationalism has enabled the ideological shifts of Sinn Féin to evolve through a new sense of nationalist identity and nationalist politics, which will be presented in a new chapter for the cause of nationalist politics in Northern Ireland. |
