Alternative law in Ireland
- ... that Irish nationalists set up alternative legal systems to supplant British rule in Ireland? Source: Laird 2005, p. 13, passim
- ALT1 ... that the Land League's "rival government" surpassed the power of the British government in many parts of Ireland? Source: "Contemporary observers frequently spoke of it as a ‘rival government’, indeed, in some areas, the only effective government" Townshend 1984, p. 125; "... Ireland was at the mercy of the Land League. There were areas of the country which simply could not be controlled by the British government." The Story of Britain: From the Romans to the Present

GTG. New enough, certainly long enough, seems neutral. Both hooks check out, Earwig finds nothing. QPQ done. I rather preferred the original title "Unofficial courts in Ireland" - Alternative dispute resolution is a legal buzzword these days, & means something rather different (mostly).
