    A Question of Political Will: Corruption and Public Administration in Ireland Di Gary Murphy, Robert Gillanders E Michael Breen

    A question of political will: Corruption and Public Administration in Ireland di Gary Murphy, Robert Gillanders e Michael Breen Abstract: A question of political will: Corruption and Public Administration in Ireland – The paper provides the reader with a transversal analysis of the issue of corruption in Ireland – including the Irish legislation against corruption and the economical shortcomings of corruption. Keywords: Ireland; Transparency; Corruption; Public administration. 1. Introduction At the end of May 2018 the Irish parliament (Oireachtas) passed all stages of the Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Bill of 2017. The original bill was introduced in November 2017 by the Minister for Justice and Equality, Charles Flanagan, as the final piece in a range of acts entitled to ensure that Irish politics and public life was clean. The purpose of the bill was to completely modernise Irish anti-corruption laws and make them more accessible to the general public. The Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Act 2018 repealed and replaced seven previous Prevention of Corruption Acts dating from 1889 to 2010. The 2018 act was, however, far more than a simple consolidation of the old law. Rather it was a robust and innovative piece of legislation that provided for a number of new offences as well as stronger penalties for those convicted of corruption. The Act followed a range of open government initiatives such as the Freedom of Information Act 2014, the Protected Disclosures Act 2014, and the Regulation of Lobbying Act 2015. In that context the Act enabled the Irish state to meet with some of its international obligations as well as significantly strengthening its legislative defences against white collar crime and corruption.

  • The Political Economy and Media Coverage of the European Economic Crisis

    The Political Economy and Media Coverage of the European Economic Crisis

    ‘Austerity as a policy harms the many and benefits the few. In a democracy that’s sup- posed to be hard to sell. Yet the democracies most effected by the European financial crisis saw no such democratic revolt. Mercille tells us why. Updating and deploying the Chomsky-Herman propaganda model of the media in a systematic and empirical way, he shows us how alternative policies are sidelined and elite interests are protected’. Mark Blyth, Professor of International Political Economy, Brown University ‘This is one of the most important political economy books of the year. Julien Mercille’s book is set to become the definitive account of the media’s role in Ireland’s spectacular and transformative economic boom and bust. He argues convincingly that critical poli- tical economic perspectives are a rarity in the Irish media and Mercille’s devastating critique painstakingly chronicles the persistent failures of the Irish media’. Dr. Tom McDonnell, Macroeconomist at the Nevin Economic Research Institute (NERI) ‘The European economies remain trapped in high levels of unemployment while more austerity is promoted as the solution. Yet the media plays a key role in presenting these austerity policies as though “there is no alternative”. This book, with a focus on Ireland, provides compelling evidence on the ideological role of the media in the presentation of the policies favoring the economic, financial and political elites. A highly recommended read for its analyses of the crises and of the neo-liberal interpretation from the media’. Malcolm Sawyer, Emeritus Professor of Economics, University of Leeds ‘The basic story of the economic crisis is simple.
