Alderdice gave crucial leadership to Alliance during a very difficult time and
through his personal and political relations with British and Irish Government
figures and leading political actors in Northern Ireland contributed to the
development of a new approach known as the Irish Peace Process. He led
the Alliance in all the talks during this period with the British and Irish
Governments and the other political parties, including the negotiations chaired by Senator George
Mitchell which resulted in the 1998 Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. After the successful referendum
and elections to the new Northern Ireland Assembly he retired as Alliance Party Leader and was
appointed Speaker of the newly created Northern Ireland Assembly and was responsible for
developing the new processes and procedures of the power-sharing body.
He has also served as Treasurer and later a Vice-President of the European Liberal Democrat and
Reform Party (1995-2003) and a Chairman of Liberal International Human Rights Committee to which
he is now an honorary patron.
In addition to his current political responsibilities he now continues his academic work on conflict
resolution at Oxford University where he has just founded the Centre for the Resolution of Intractable
Conflict.
