Abstract

Abstract A marked pattern of area-to-area differences in violence is described for Northern Ireland during 1969–74. Violence, measured by death rates, is especially high in the two largest cities and in the southwestern area. Two variables which together account for most of the area variation in violence are population density and proportion Roman Catholic. These findings underline the relative importance of group mobilization for political challenge as a basis of recent Ulster violence.
