For twenty years, Ireland's economic miracle was supposed to be the
envy of the world. Low taxes, light regulation and an 'anything
goes' attitude seemed to have created boundless prosperity. And
then, as in Iceland, the glittering palaces vanished in the heat of
the global financial meltdown. For years, those with economic power
had been investing in a gigantic property bubble. In Ship of Fools
Fintan O'Toole tells the story of this dizzying rise and sickening
fall. Ireland may have had a tiger economy, but those in charge of
it had not lost their taste for sweetheart deals, back-handers and
bribery. This is the essential analysis of Ireland's economic
suicide.
