After the Second World War the Irish state maintained the high
industrial tariffs of the 1930s, despite the inefficiency of its
protected industries. Such inefficiency fed into the crisis of
economic stagnation and mass emigration that engulfed the Republic
in the 1950s. As EEC entry became the state's goal, adapting and
upgrading Irish industries for free trade conditions loomed large
in the 1960s. These ends were pursued through technical assistance
schemes and a productivity drive - innovations introduced to the
Irish state by the US Marshall Plan. This book looks at this
neglected aspect of post-war Irish history and analyzes the social,
political, and economic effects of the policies pursued.
