Overview
In contrast with its popular image as a land of green pastures, rolling hills, and a traditional, self-sustaining rural economy, modern Ireland is beset by economic, social, and environmental problems. While many of these are historical--the strife in the North, for example--others are part of general European and world trends. This book considers these problems from a geographical perspective, placing them within their regional, national, and international contexts. The multidisciplinary nature of the geographical sciences is exploited to highlight the past, present, and future contexts of issues facing Ireland.Book Details
