- Described by the ACIS Donald Murphy Prize committee as a ‘conceptually sophisticated book [that] deftly marries historical and anthropological analysis to critical theory’, Unapproved routes is the product of extensive archival research including in Belfast, Dublin, and London. At the same time, it radically shifts the focus of the history of partition both away from these centres and away from high politics and political violence, onto those living on or close to the margins of both states. In doing so, it reveals the complex ways in which the border was experienced, but also, challenged, utilised, and circumvented by borderland communities.
