English involvement in Ireland dates back to 1171, when English King, Henry II invaded the island to expand his empire. Since then, politics in the region has been characterized by varying degrees of tension between Irish independence and British rule. This tension has often flared into violent conflict.

· Given the long history of conflict, is it likely that disputes between England and Ireland have been permanently resolved?

· What can be done to decrease the chance of further conflict?

· What does this example tell us about the social construction of ethnic identities?
