Description
Irish Adventures in Nation-building explores the debates and processes that have shaped modern Ireland since the early twentieth century. This collection of essays examines the perspectives of influential thinkers, from revolutionaries to economists, who contributed to discussions about Ireland's future. The essays chart the main shifts in dominant ideas and cultural, economic, and political circumstances over the last hundred years. Topics range from the intellectual conflicts of the 1930s to the recent openness to large-scale immigration, and consider why certain ideas were ignored or adopted. This multi-disciplinary book draws on sociology, political economy, and Irish Studies to offer a coherent overview of how Ireland has changed. By examining the debates and ideas that have shaped modern Ireland, this book provides valuable insights into the country's development over the last century.
