Rule Breakers by Niamh Hourigan
In this, a ground-breaking survey of the Irish national character, Niamh Hourigan draws on a wealth of new and compelling research to reveal the fundamental conflict at the heart of the Irish society:that between our traditional faith in the politics of intimacy, and the ruling systems in which weve invested power.Niamh Hourigan is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Sociology and Philosophy, University College Cork, where she specialises in the study of minorities groups, media and, most recently the sociological impact of debt and austerity on the Irish middle class.
Having worked as a journalist and radio presenter while completing her PhD, she continues to make regular appearances in the national media, primarily as a columnist (Irish Independent, Irish Times and Irish Examiner) and expert commentator (‘The Right Hook’, ‘Tonight with Vincent Browne’, ‘Morning Ireland’, ‘Today with Pat Kenny’ and ‘Prime Time’).
