A selection of mini-models designed to provide an insight into the ongoing work of 'Writing Peace' and to demonstrate Quill's approach to visualising the archive material and tracking the process of negotiation. This collection is still under construction.
This mini-model is still under construction. The editors aim to assemble a comprehensive (but non-exhaustive) collection of drafts of the Downing Street Joint Declaration to track how the text developed over time. This mini-model only contains the drafts, but we are also working on a more comprehensive model that will include the meetings where the declaration was under consideration, track the process of amendment, and detail further annotations made to each draft. This detailed model is forthcoming in December 2023.

Annex B to the above. A detailed note on the text of JD15 and JD15B (not attached). Explains the reasoning behind the British amendments included in JD15B and attributes them to Mayhew.
British amendments are underlined with unbroken line and Irish amendments are underlined with broken line. Any paragraphs about the Irish Convention have been removed. Paragraph 11 has been completely written by the Irish as had much of 10, whilst the British amendments focus on paragraph 4.
