| Summary: | "In Transforming Unionism Michael Kerr examines these questions, telling the inside story of the UUP's electoral meltdown and the last days of Trimble as the party's historic leader. Seen through the eyes of the campaign team, Michael Kerr's daily journal, and interviews with all the key players, this book dissects the 2005 campaign and the end of the Trimble project." "Michael Kerr's controversial evaluation of the UUP's decline opened up a fresh debate over the future of Unionism. Transforming Unionism challenges Ulster Unionists to rethink their political strategy as they enter the post-Trimble era and offers a constructive analysis of what Ulster Unionism must do if it is to survive the fallout of the DUP's 2005 landslide victory."--Jacket. |
