Description
This new edition has been revised and updated to include coverage of the 1997 general election, the creation of a new coalition of Fianna Fail, and the Progressive Democrats under Bertie Ahern. Reflecting on current developments in Irish politics, the authors also examine other crucial issues such as the implications of a written constitution, changes in the party system, the power of major special interest groups, the role of the civil service, the position of the media, and membership in the European Union.
