Ireland appears to be in the throes of a remarkable process of social change. The purpose of this book is to systematically scrutinize the interpretations and prescriptions that inform the deceptively simple metaphor of the "Celtic Tiger." The standpoint of the book is that a more critical approach to the course of development being followed by the Republic is urgently required. The essays collected here set out to expose the fallacies that drive the fashionable rhetoric of Tigerhood. Four of these fallacies--that Ireland has cast off the chains of economic dependency, that everyone is benefiting from the economic recovery, that personal freedom and liberty are at an unprecedented level for all citizens, and that Ireland is also experiencing a period of strong cultural renaissance--are vigorously challenged.

Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject Economics - Case Scenarios, grade: 1,7 (A-), http://www.uni-jena.de/ (Department of Intercultural Economic Communications), course: Seminar: British culture and economic performanceer, language: English, abstract: The globalisation of the world economy is one of the most important business and economic phenomenon at the close of the 20 th century. The process has been driven by a wide range of forces such as improvements in transport and communications and, most importantly, the clear demonstration that openess to the international economy offers a route to economic development while isolatio offers stagnation and decline. Ireland has also participated enthusiastically in this process through the development of a modern trading industrial base. The last years of the twentieth century have added an exceptional dimension to the transition to a new millennium in Ireland. The economy of the Republic of Ireland has undergone a singular transformation; it has surmounted crippling weaknesses to attract widespread recognition for its impressive performance. No part of the island and no individual on it has been wholly insulated from the effects of this turnaround. Within the scope of our group presentation I ́ve get very interested in this phenomenon of the so called “Celtic Tiger”. In this termpaper I will try to explain what the “Celtic Tiger” is and what makes him run. I will also try to describe its effects. Although the Celic Tiger has led to an enormous growth, there is another side of the coin. Not every member of the Irish Republic has profited by the changes in the country. There aren ́t only winners. It ́s my aim to show the different sides of this economic boom of Ireland. I will analyse the advantages and highlights but also the downside of the Celtic Tiger and at the end of the paper the main points will be summarized in my conclusion.

This article considers the effect, if any, that company law and corporate governance law had on the phenomenon of excessive lending and borrowing that occurred in the Irish economy towards the end of the Celtic Tiger era (1990-2008). The final years of the Celtic Tiger period saw the growth and collapse of the Irish property bubble, fuelled by lending of 'cheap' money by Irish banks and borrowing by indigenous Irish property development companies. This chain of events culminated in a state guarantee and bailout of the Irish banking sector which has led to ongoing significant damage to Ireland and its economy, the full consequences of which are continuing to be manifest. What is clear is that excessive risktaking by banks, as lenders, and property development companies, as borrowers, led to the collapse of both sectors. The Irish property bubble, and this pattern of behaviour that caused it, is used here as a case study to raise questions as to why corporate governance law and company law seem to have failed to curtail such risktaking during this period. In describing these events from a legal perspective, the paper hypothesises that the failure of law can be explained by considering the inter-relationship between law and non-legal norms, the latter seeming to be more powerful and to have the ability to trump the rule of law in certain circumstances and contexts. This analysis of the role of non-legal norms is not intended to suggest that legal frameworks do not matter, but more to illustrate that, where they have failed to deliver stated goals, other factors must be understood so that the law can address the causes and drivers of this failure.

Examines how the Celtic Tiger, an economy that was hailed as one of the most successful in history, fell into a macroeconomic abyss necessitating an unheard of bail-out. A highly-readable account of the unprecedented near collapse of the Irish economy, it covers property market bubbles, regulatory incompetency, and disastrous economic policies.

By 2000, Ireland had achieved a remarkable macroeconomic performance: 10% economic growth annually, a budget surplus, and a very low debt to GDP ratio. Emigration had disappeared and there was significant immigration from Eastern Europe. Yet, by November 2010, output had collapsed to an extent unprecedented among post war industrial countries, the budget deficit was out of control, and the debt to GDP ratio had soared to around 100%. In an unprecedented development, Ireland was forced to apply for an emergency bail-out package from the Troika (European Commission, European Central Bank, and the International Monetary Fund). This book examines how the Celtic Tiger, a high growth performing economy, fell into a macroeconomic abyss. It is a story that shows how the Irish economy moved from a property market crisis to a banking crisis and fiscal crisis, and how these three crises led to a fourth crisis, the massive financial crisis of 2010. Against the backdrop of the newly created Eurozone, the book demonstrates how a housing boom was transformed into a property market bubble through excessive credit creation. Accompanying the market bubble, buoyant property related taxes enabled a profligate government to over spend and under tax. Few, either in Ireland or Europe, recognised the danger signals because the prevailing economic ideology suggested that financial markets could self-regulate. The book analyses the roles of banks, builders, developers, regulators (the EU, the ECB, the Central Bank of Ireland, and the Irish Financial Regulator), politicians, economists, the media, and a property driven populace during the various stages of the downfall of the Celtic Tiger. It pays particular attention to the decisions to provide a highly controversial comprehensive guarantee for the covered Irish banks in 2008, and the subsequent events that left the government with no alternative but to request the 2010 bail out. Throughout the book, attention is devoted to the allocation of responsibilities for the unfolding crises. First, who or what was responsible for what happened and in what sense? Second, could specific actions have been taken at various stages to prevent the final recourse to the bail out? Finally, the book addresses the future of the Celtic Tiger. It discusses the impact of measures to help resolve the current Euro debt crisis as well as the underlying lessons to be learned from this traumatic period in Ireland's economic and financial history.

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 70%; 1,5, Dublin City University, course: Introduction to Modern Ireland, language: English, abstract: In 2007 the real GDP growth rate was at 6%. In 2007 the unemployment rate was at 4%. In 2007 general government debts accounted for 25% of the GDP. These are some facts on Ireland by the end of 2007. All three figures are well below the EU average and Ireland is one of the wealthiest countries worldwide. Ireland’s economic success is unprecedented in Europe. Therefore the green Island was also known as the “Celtic Tiger”. Critics argue that Ireland’s economic success predominantly arose from external factors, such as EU grants and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). But is this really the case? Probably not, but it was the political framework that established the favourable economic environment. This paper analyses the impact of political leadership to the economic boom between 1990 and 2007. Since it was not a single decision that attracted foreign firms, but rather an evolving process that fuelled Ireland’s economy, the essay covers the whole period of time between the 1950s and the 2000s.

This collection examines the Celtic Tiger, the Irish economic phenomenon and the subsequent financial disaster, from a socio-cultural perspective. Employing a wide range of cultural lenses, the book critiques the cultural, political and aesthetic implications of the progression from prosperity to austerity and the impact this has had on the psyche of Irish culture. An eclectic mix of theoretical approaches enables treatment of religion, literature, popular culture, photography, gastronomy, music, gender, immigration and film, as contributors assess how the Celtic Tiger was represented, or misrepresented, in these particular spheres of experience. This book will be of interest to academics and students who are interested in contemporary Ireland and recent Irish history, as well as to the general reader anxious to understand the effects of this period on the real lives of people as expressed through culture. It features contributions by internationally acknowledged experts in their fields and offers a comprehensive overview of the cultural consequences of the Celtic Tiger and its aftermath.
