Humanities & Social SciencesNovember 2011Public Private Partnerships in Ireland
Failed experiment or the way forward?
by Rory Hearne, Rob Kitchin
Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) have come to public attention in recent years in Ireland with the impact of toll roads, the collapse of social-housing projects and their use in the provision of courts buildings, schools, water/waste water treatment plants, hospitals, light rail and other public infrastructure and services. This book provides a ground breaking and unique analysis of the development of such PPPs internationally, with a detailed focus on the rationale behind their introduction and outcomes in Ireland. The detailed evidence outlined from the author's extensive research (including interviews with senior central and government officials, private sector, community and trade union representatives and the Irish Minister for Environment) highlights the important role PPPs are playing in the implementation of privatisation and neoliberalism. The book also provides considerable practical lessons from individual PPP projects. It is therefore an essential read for students, academics of politics, economics, sociology, geography and policy practitioners in Ireland, and further afield. It is of considerable interest to anyone concerned with the progress of Irish society, its economy and, indeed public services and governance internationally. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2019Waiting for the revolution
The British far left from 1956
by Evan Smith, Matthew Worley, Jacquelyn Arnold, Daniel Finn, Michael Fitzpatrick, Diarmaid Kelliher, Jack Saunders, J Daniel Taylor, Jodi Burkett, Gavin Brown, Daisy Payling, Christopher Massey, Sheryl-Bernadett Buckley, Daryl Leeworthy, Rory Scothorne, Ewan Gibbs, Lyndon White (Lawrence Parker)
Waiting for the revolution is a volume of essays examining the diverse currents of British left-wing politics from 1956 to the present day. The book is designed to complement the previous volume, Against the grain: The far left in Britain from 1956, bringing together young and established academics and writers to discuss the realignments and fissures that maintain leftist politics into the twenty-first century. The two books endeavour to historicise the British left, detailing but also seeking to understand the diverse currents that comprise 'the far left'. Their objective is less to intervene in ongoing issues relevant to the left and politics more generally, than to uncover and explore the traditions and issues that have preoccupied leftist groups, activists and struggles. To this end, the book will appeal to scholars and anyone interested in British politics.
