This volume assesses the fundamental changes in Irish society over
the last several decades, changes that have led to a more
prosperous, more economically self-sufficient and more
outward-looking nation. The areas addressed include: a social
profile of Irish citizens over time; the restructuring of the Irish
economy and its consequences for the modern Irish state; the
evolution of social and religious values and their political
ramifications; the role of the Catholic Church and its changing
relationship to Irish society and governmental power; political
institutions; policy formation and impact in areas ranging from
social welfare, industrial finance and economic policy to education
and religion; the evolving international role of Ireland and in
particular its relationship to the European Union; the efforts to
promote a lasting peace with Northern Ireland and the changing
conception of potential resolutions to the divisions present; and
the relevance of these developments both for appreciating the
current Irish state and its contribution to democratic development
and economic modernization.
