- Abstract
This paper have as priority to deal with the complexity of terrorism as term, showing its operative modality and seeking to comprehend its emergency and legitimation process. Thus, its objective was to explain the relation between terrorism's operative patterns and creation of identities, using the conflict between catholic- -nationalists and protestant-unionists in Ireland and Northern Ireland, and the actions of the Irish Republican Army (IRA). The result of the research was that the way in which the conflict was reproduced had helped to create a nationalist identity in the region, and with the solid legitimation of IRA's actions during the years, it made wherewith the renouncement of using armed resources from the group more justified the use of terrorism than neutralized the conflict.
