In light of the innumerable interventions that characterise the
transformation of Ireland over the last two decades, Spacing
Ireland: Place, society and culture in a post-boom era explores
questions of 'space' and 'place' to understand the nature of major
social, cultural and economic change in contemporary Ireland. The
authors explore the intersections between everyday life and global
exchanges through the contexts of the 'stuff' of contemporary
everyday encounters: food, housing, leisure, migration, music,
shopping, travel and work. These are the multiple layers of space
we now inhabit. Ireland is a turbulent place. It is fruitful to
consider the contemporary geographies of the island through the
various forms where change is expressed. The wide range of topics
addressed in the collection and the plurality of spaces they
represent make the book appealing not only to students and
academics, but to anyone who follows social, cultural and economic
developments in Ireland. -- .
