Though i've followed the barest and briefest of stories on Irish politics since (FG in power, FF reduced to a shell of its self), I feel woefully ignorant.

Hey all,

I'm an american who studied at DCU back in 2008, during the Bertie days. Though i've followed the barest and briefest of stories on Irish politics since (FG in power, FF reduced to a shell of its self), I feel woefully ignorant. Any links/articles/books I can pick up to bring me to speed, both on what happened with the economy and particularly the way its changed the Dail's composition?

The most recent copy of Economy of Ireland. I think its the 12th edition. Its covers everything and I mean everything about the Irish economy. Nearly every chapter has a different author, that is an expert on the subject. Its a very factual, no BS book
