Abstract

The UK government’s recent decision not to establish a public enquiry into the 1989 murder of Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane has resurrected a contested debate surrounding the extent of collusion between the British state and Loyalist paramilitaries during Margaret Thatcher’s premiership. Stephen Kelly discusses some of the evidence surrounding this case.
