Policing for Peace in Northern Ireland: Change, Conflict and Community Confidence by J. Murphy

This is the first in-depth analysis of the transition from the RUC to the PSNI seen through the eyes of key figures, inside and outside the organization.

Policing for Peace in Northern Ireland Reviews

This book makes an important contribution to an understanding of the profound changes in policing that have occurred within a relatively short period of time in Northern Ireland. It also contributes to an understanding of organizational change in general. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in deepening his or her understanding of this complex situation.

- Rutgers University Review

Murphy's close and detailed analysis provides a nuanced account of these important issues, and her work adds a valuable dimension to our understanding of the transition from RUC to PSNI. It will be of interest to researchers and policy-makers interested in the process of police reform in Northern Ireland and internationally and in the internal dynamics of organizational change generally. - Aogan Mulcahy, British Journal of Criminology
