{"product_id":"leagues-apart-raymond-crozier-9798387129735","title":"Leagues Apart: Football, Northern Ireland and Me","description":"This book provides a personal account of my own football experiences in the context of political and social changes in the post-Second World War Northern Ireland in which I grew up. It has been an extended period of extreme turbulence, with over 3,000 violent and avoidable deaths since the 1960s. I begin with a brief account of major turning points in the history of partition and sectarianism in Northern Ireland before turning to the different forms of football. I write about my own experience of football while I was growing up and consider the question of sectarianism in sport within Northern Ireland. I discuss the political changes that took place in Northern Ireland that led to the Troubles and examine the role in this played by students at Queen's University, Belfast, where I was an undergraduate from 1964 to 1968. Finally, I consider how barriers between the communities might be overcome, and ask what psychological research might contribute to this process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Raymond Crozier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8387129739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798387129735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Raymond Crozier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45478586056959,"sku":"9798387129735","price":9.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_16bc6622-4ac3-4656-b9f7-119962f20b74.jpg?v=1715935400","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/leagues-apart-raymond-crozier-9798387129735","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
