The Economy of Ireland Summary

The Economy of Ireland: Policy Making in a Global Context by Volume editor John O'Hagan (Department of Economics, Dublin)

The Economy of Ireland (14th edition) takes a holistic examination of the Irish Economy in light of events including the Celtic Tiger boom, recession, recovery and a global pandemic. The textbook considers the evolution of the Irish economy over time; the policy priorities for a small regional economy in the eurozone; the role of the state in policy making; taxation and regulatory policy; and the challenge of sustainable development. This provides a framework for analysing policy issues at a national level, including the Irish labour market and migration, inequality and poverty, and the care economy. The book then considers issues at a sectoral level, from agriculture and trade to the education and health sectors. Packed with the latest available data, contemporary examples and analysis of topical issues, this is an ideal text for students studying modules on Irish Economics.

The Economy of Ireland Reviews

Now in its 14th Edition, The Economy of Ireland remains a go-to reference for anyone interested in the study of Irish economic policy. * Michael McMahon, Professor of Economics, University of Oxford, UK *
The Economy of Ireland continues to be, the key text for anyone who wants to understand the development, structure, successes and challenges of the Irish economy. It covers a wide array of national and international policy issues in a thorough yet accessible volume. * Martina Lawless, Research Professor, Economic and Social Research Institute, Ireland *
The Economy of Ireland is the recognised text for students and for anybody who is looking for one authoritative book on the Irish Economy – an invaluable resource and a guide for further reading. * Mary E. Daly, Emeritus Professor of History, University College Dublin, Ireland *
The Economy of Ireland provides a contemporary treatment of the state of the Irish economy and of the decisions that policymakers in Ireland and in similar economies will face over the coming decade. It is an invaluable resource for anyone interested - whether they are formally a student of economics or not - in the most pressing issues in Irish economic policy. * Cormac O’Dea, Assistant Professor of Economics, Yale University, USA *
The Economy of Ireland has been the core text for students of the Irish economy for over forty years and the latest edition will ensure that this continues. More generally, the approach and the issues considered are relevant across many of the EU’s smaller countries so the audience will extend beyond Ireland. The integration of macroeconomics, microeconomics, policy and theory in a single volume make this a uniquely enlightening volume. * Alan Barrett, Director of Economic and Social Research Institute, Ireland *
