Conclusion. 330 $aIn Jerusalem and Northern Ireland, territorial disputes have often seemed indivisible, unable to be solved through negotiation, and prone to violence and war. This book challenges the conventional wisdom that these conflicts were the inevitable result of clashing identities, religions, and attachments to the land. On the contrary, it was radical political rhetoric, and not ancient hatreds, that rendered these territories indivisible. Stacie Goddard traces the roots of territorial indivisibility to politicians' strategies for legitimating their claims to territory. When bargaining over territory, politicians utilize rhetoric to appeal to their domestic audiences and undercut the claims of their opponents. However, this strategy has unintended consequences; by resonating with some coalitions and appearing unacceptable to others, politicians' rhetoric can lock them into positions in which they are unable to recognize the legitimacy of their opponent's demands. As a result, politicians come to negotiations with incompatible claims, constructing territory as indivisible. 606 $aNationalism$zNorthern Ireland 606 $aPolitical violence$zNorthern Ireland 606 $aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$zNorthern Ireland 606 $aNationalism$zJerusalem 606 $aPolitical violence$zJerusalem 606 $aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$zJerusalem 606 $aPartition, Territorial$vCase studies 607 $aIreland$xHistory$yPartition, 1921 607 $aJerusalem$xHistory$yPartition, 1948 615 0$aNationalism 615 0$aPolitical violence 615 0$aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aNationalism 615 0$aPolitical violence 615 0$aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aPartition, Territorial 676 $a941.5082/1 700 $aGoddard$b Stacie E.$f1974-$0969816 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825937503321 996 $aIndivisible territory and the politics of legitimacy$94104197 997 $aUNINA
