"Over the past 20 years, the economy of Ireland has experienced a Celtic Tiger boom, a recession, a recovery and a global pandemic that has coincided with the emerging reality of Brexit. In order to fully understand these occurrences and their implications, The Economy of Ireland takes a holistic examination of the main features, performance and associated policy issues of the Irish Economy. The textbook begins by introducing the economic foundations of Ireland, considering 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 at national and international levels; 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 – examined both over time and relative to international experiences. Finally, the book considers issues at a sectoral level, from agriculture and trade to the education and health sectors."--
