Aspirations for Ireland

the long version

A compilation of 16 essays by innovative thinkers on the future shape of Irish society and culture. It views the current economic, social, spiritual and environmental crisis as a wake-up call to a fundamental rethink of our direction and values and presents often radical solutions to develop a more resilient and egalitarian alternative. They provide clear direction on the steps to be taken if Ireland is to meet current and forthcoming challenges in key areas such as energy, economy, health, justice, culture, education, religion, housing and food security. The book will contribute to the debate on Ireland's recovery.
