| Description: |
Inequality and injustice have distinctively geographical aspects in modern Ireland. Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis describes and explains the socially, economically and geographically differentiated outcomes of one of the most far-reaching economic calamities experienced by any developed country in the past century. |
| Synopsis: |
As the global financial crisis enters its sixth year, this volume offers a wide-ranging critique of its handling. Academics in the field of social geography address the key political, economic and social shifts that have defined contemporary Ireland as it responds to the interrated collapses of the property market and the banking system. The concept of 'spatial justice' provides a cogent entry point for the authors into debates around austerity, equality and social justice. This volume enquires into the everyday concerns of citizens, planners and government officials alike. Each chapter undertakes a detailed examination of core aspects of the crisis and its management, including housing, planning and the environment, health, education, migration and unemployment. The analyses extend beyond the academy to questions of policy, governmentality, public participation and active citizenship. These contributions come from leading geographers across Ireland, the UK and North America. |
