Details: How stands the Irish nation today? As society adjusts to the pressures of the 1980s, the time has come to ask the question: what happened our sense of identity? In this hard-hitting, thoughtful book, Desmond Fennell provides a searching analysis of the values of an independent Ireland, and the steady process of cultural denationalisation that has sapped our vitality over the past sixty years. This book casts a cold eye on the mishmash of undigested consumerist liberal influences that have permeated Irish thinking since the 1960s, and throws down a challenge to the cultural life of the nation. Provocative, personal and intensely readable, The State of the Nation demands immediate attention.
