Description

The third edition addresses the most important current topics in Irish politics. It fills a major gap in the academic literature on Irish politics, providing students with a comprehensive introduction to the issues dominating debates in both parts of Ireland. The recent emergence of emigration, environmental risk and technological changes on to the political agenda is reflected. It also revisits Ireland's economic performance, the peace process and the policy areas of health, housing and industrial relations.
