This book provides a detailed, student-friendly overview of Ireland
in the twenty first century and the remarkable economic and social
transformations that have occurred since the late 1980s. The
"Celtic Tiger" phenomenon has made Ireland the focus of much
attention in recent years. Other countries have openly declared
that they want to follow the Irish economic and social model. Yet
there is no book that gives a comprehensive, spatially-informed
analysis of the Irish experience. This book fills that gap. Divided
into four parts -- planning and development, the economy, the
political landscape, and population and social issues -- the
chapters provide an explanation of a particular aspect of Ireland
and Irish life accompanied by illustrative material. In particular,
the authors reveal how the transformations that have occurred are
uneven and unequal in their effects across the country and
highlight the challenges now facing Irish society and
policy-makers. Written by experts in the field, it is a key text
for those wishing to understand the contemporary Irish economic and
social landscape.
