A State in Denial

A detailed and controversial examination of collusion, intelligence operations, and political power during the Troubles in Northern Ireland.

Some items on Kate's Treasures15 are chosen because they are beautiful or useful. Some are here because they meant something to my dad. He was an actor, a scriptwriter, and someone deeply interested in political history, conflict, and the stories governments would often rather leave untold. This feels very much like one of those books.

Written by Margaret Urwin, A State in Denial investigates allegations of collaboration between elements of the British state and loyalist paramilitary groups during the 1970s and 1980s.

Drawing on official documents, historical research, and political analysis, the book explores covert operations, intelligence activity, internment, and the wider impact of conflict on Northern Ireland.

Thought provoking and heavily researched, it is an important read for those interested in Irish history, British politics, and twentieth century conflict studies.

Arya's Approval
Right darlings… this is serious late night reading with cups of tea, highlighted pages, and somebody saying “this goes deeper than people realise.” Extremely intense. I approve.
