What was the role of the British and Irish Governments in the peace process? How much did the military stalemate matter?  What role did paramilitary leaders play?  What were the day-to-day issues on the ground which at times threatened to collapse the process? How different was the experience of ordinary people on the ground from that of politicians? How did people handle the past?

For nearly seven years Community Dialogue has brought together people from opposing backgrounds to share the pain people they felt at losing loved ones, their frustration when they felt they were ignored, and the difficulties they had understanding why others acted the way they did. Many also shared a deep longing for an end to violence and a new society in which there is safety, respect for different identities, and people are no longer dominated by the past.

Peace Comes Dropping Slow  is a reflection on these dialogues
