Welcome to the State Violence and Collusion Project portal on Powerbase

Welcome to Powerbase—your guide to networks of power, lobbying and deceptive PR.

The State Violence and Collusion Project has been set up by Spinwatch in collaboration with the Pat Finucane Centre as a platform for research on the role of state violence and collusion in the Northern Ireland conflict. By building up a comprehensive picture of the role of state structures in the conflict, the project aims to assist families and researchers in working on particular cases, and in making the case for a wider public process of truth recovery.

Powerbase has a policy of strict referencing and is overseen by a Managing editor, a Sysop and several associate portal editors.
The editor of the State Violence and Collusion Project is Tom Griffin.

Can you help?

Powerbase can be made more effective if more people join the project. If you have research or writing skills or just spare time, you can help.

If you are unsure where to start, you could expand some of the recently created but currently very brief articles. (If you look at the recent changes page you will see some noted as being 'stubs' - articles that may just be a line or two and needing to be fleshed out). So if you would like to add to some of those you would be most welcome.

There is an automatically updated page which includes the pages which have been signalled by Powerbase users as most wanted. In addition there is a page which includes a list of Things you can do to help.

Or if you would like some other suggestions closer to your interests you could drop Powerbase editor, David Miller an email. His address is editor AT powerbase.info
