Title: Global Ireland
First published: September 26, 2007
Description: "Global Ireland offers a concise synthesis of globalization's dramatic impact on Ireland. In the past fifteen years, Ireland has transformed from a sleepy and depressed European backwater to the "Celtic Tiger," a country with a booming economy based on knowledge and high tech industries. Using a number of case studies of Ireland's transition, Tom Inglis explains what this means for traditional Irish culture and society and offers an incisive social portrait of globalizing Ireland."--Jacket.
