Recycling the State: The Politics of Adaptation in Ireland

Focusing on the evolution of the Irish state, the book offers a fresh analysis by a new generation of scholars, emphasizing the concept of 'recycling' as a continuous process of adaptation. It examines how historical perspectives and future visions shape contemporary politics, particularly through the lenses of state definition, representation, and participation. Interdisciplinary in approach, the authors engage with various schools of thought to address critical issues, making the text accessible to a broad audience interested in modern Irish political dynamics.
