Download or read book Brian Lenihan written by Brian Murphy and published by Merrion Press. This book was released on 2014-09-26 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Lenihan was Minister for Finance at the time of the recent and dramatic political and economic crisis in Ireland, and was the lynchpin in the rescue package sought by the Irish Government. The recollections within this powerful new book throw light on Lenihan s political career from its earliest days to his untimely death in 2011. The perceptive and timely contributions arise from those who were directly involved with him at all stages, and include those of high-profile public figures and political insiders from all sides of the Irish political spectrum. From the international stage Christine Lagarde offers her memories of the man and the crises and challenges they faced together. Brian Lenihan s achievements and how he achieved them are documented and discussed, such as his work as Minister of State for Children, giving a rare insight into his persona and principles throughout his life and career. An unflinching public servant and adept political animal, Lenihan was hugely tested in the wake of Ireland s economic crisis, yet his paramount desire was to work in the best interests of his country. The legacy of that ambition is debated in this unique collection which highlights his skills as a lawyer, academic and politician as well as describing Brian Lenihan the man through those who knew him on a more personal level.

Book excerpt: An Unauthorized Biography of the World explores the practice of engaged oral history: the difficult, sometimes dangerous work of recovering fragments of human story that have gone missing from the official versions.

Download or read book Irish Elections 1948 77 Results and Analysis written by Michael Gallagher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the second in the series Sources for the Study of Irish Politics, which is produced by the Political Studies Association of Ireland (PSAI). The aim of the PSAI is to promote the professional study of politics in and of Ireland, and the aim of the series is to make more widely available material that is at present difficult to obtain. Building on its predecessor Irish Elections 1922-44: Results and Analysis (1993), this volume assembles the full results of all elections to Dáil Éireann from 1948 to 1977. The book also contains analysis of each election, summaries of votes, percentages and seats for each election, lists of TDs (members of parliament) elected at each election, information on defeated TDs and women TDs, analysis of tranfer patterns, members of govenrment appointed after each election, and the full results of all by-elections held in the period. It also provides summary results of the nine general elections of the period 1981-2007, along with a comprehensive list of TDs 1922-2008. Elections to Dáil Éireann are held under the PR-STV (single tranferable vote) electoral system, and this volume provides a fascinating account of PR-STV in operation as well as constituting an indispensble record of Irish political history over the middle years of the independent state.

Book excerpt: When Richard Hayes, a gifted polymath and cryptographer, was drafted by Irish intelligence services to track the movements of a prolific Nazi spy, Hermann Görtz, it set in motion one of the most remarkable episodes in Irish history. What followed was a high-stakes game of cat and mouse that would wind its way through the capital and its suburbs, reverberate through the corridors of power, test the sympathies of those in high society, and even expand to jeopardise the Allied war effort.Codebreaker is a riveting and deeply researched account of an extraordinary period of history – when Dublin became a hotbed of Nazi intrigue and the fate of an independent Ireland settled on the shoulders of an unassuming employee of the National Library.
