Making the Difference?: The Irish Labour Party 1912-2012

by Paul Daly, Ronan O'Brien (Editor)

This series of essays to mark the party's centenary assesses the challenges facing Labour in a deeply conservative country, where echoes of civil war and Catholic Church hegemony have dominated the political landscape. Leading writers from the fields of journalism, history, and social reform examine the failings, splits, and contradictions of Ireland's oldest political party.
