      abstract = {The history of Ireland in the twentieth century was  dominated by the political and sectarian divide between the  north and the south, leading to sustaining armed violence  over several decades. These Government documents of the  British administration in Northern Ireland 1921-72 (CAB/4)  offer what have been described as the best continuous  record of government activity and decision-making in the  world, and shows "how government actually worked". The  papers contained in Northern Ireland: A Divided Community,  1921-1972 are a complete digital facsimile of the Cabinet  Conclusion files of the Northern Ireland Government, filed  as CAB/4 at the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland  (PRONI). These CAB/4 files contain a full record of every  debate and transaction for the entire duration of the  Stormont administration, the devolved government of  Northern Ireland. Separate files exist for each Cabinet  Meeting and include minutes and memoranda. The discussions  and decisions reflect the wide range of problems and  activities involved in making the new administration work.  Topics debated and reported in just one sample year of the  Troubles (1970) include: policing, arms and explosives,  social need, prevention of incitement to religious hatred,  army occupation of factories, road spiking, routing of  Orange Day parades, dock strikes, law and order, riots, and  the roles of the Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR) and the  Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC).},
