Returns to Education
In examining labour-market returns to educational performance it is necessary to understand the way in which those actors who govern access to such returns—namely employers—perceive and utilize measures of performance. We argue that this will be responsive to institutional features of the educational system and the labour market and the relationship between them. We illustrate our case through an examination of the way in which Irish employers ma…

The Ebbing Tide
In the preceding nine chapters we have sought to present an account of the relationship between State policy and the class structure of present day Ireland. In doing so we have concentrated on how that relationship has been shaped, and how it has been reflected in particular areas within Ireland’s economy and social structure. Our analysis is intended to contribute to the growing body of work which seeks to improve our understanding of the circum…
Education
Two related concerns — equality of educational opportunity and the link between education and the labour demands of a modern capitalist economy — lay at the root of many of the major changes brought about in public education by Western governments during the post-war period. These changes have led to a rapid expansion of both the provision and the utilisation of public education, with a concomitant growth in educational expenditure.1
The Evolution and Structure of the Irish State
The structure of the Irish State and its development after Independence bear the marks of the post-colonial, semi-peripheral experience. Certainly nationalism and economic vulnerability were influential in shaping the role of the State. Of these influences, nationalism was perhaps dominant, as it often directed State policies down paths which economic interest did not justify. Irish nationalism however, was untypically an agent of stability rathe…
Introduction
Few societies have changed so rapidly and so radically as has the Republic of Ireland since 1960. The resulting transformation is particularly striking given Ireland’s image as a rural, conservative and Catholic backwater of post-war Europe. Moreover, there was substance to the image. The first 40 years of independence — from the 1920s to the 1960s — were notable for institutional continuity rather than change, and for an isolation which, by 1950…
State, Class and Family
In word at least, Irish State policy has been least ambiguous in the area of the family. The content of that policy until the 1970s, however, was mainly defined by the Catholic Church, not the State. A series of constitutional and legislative provisions ignored, by and large, the viewpoints of minority religions and meticulously implemented the values of conservative Catholic social thinking, within which the family is the basic unit of society (…
Agriculture
The publication of the Programme for Economic Expansion in 1958 does not stand as a watershed for Irish agriculture in the way that it does for much of the rest of the Irish economy and society. Rather, the post-1958 period has seen the continuation of several important long-term trends in Irish farming while, at the same time, a number of developments in the 1960s and 1970s — and, crucially, entry to the EC in 1973 — have both accelerated these …
The Transformation of the Class Structure
In the span of 25 years, Ireland’s class structure shifted from one based on family property to one based on educational credentials. Opportunities for self-employment as labourers — agricultural and non-agricultural — contracted; massive growth occurred in professional and technical employment and in skilled manual labour. The broad outline of the resulting transformation is familiar, experienced by most core and semi-peripheral societies. It is…
Industrial Relations and the State
The shift away from a residual State role in industrial relations was a direct response to the problems created by the industrialisation strategy pursued in Ireland. Free trade and the heavy reliance on attracting foreign investment made it imperative to maintain stable industrial relations and wage competitiveness (Hardiman, 1986; Roche 1982; Stanton, 1979) and in these respects, the traditional role of the State in industrial relations could no…
The State and the Distribution and Redistribution of Income
The opportunities for white collar and skilled manual work fostered by economic growth were far more secure, well-paid and satisfying than those which change had displaced. Prosperity brought an improved standard of living to the fortunate occupants of positions in the State bureaucracy, manufacturing industry and the services. At the same time, the zeal with which politicians and the public embraced the idea of a Welfare State ensured that those…
Employment, Unemployment and Industrial Policy
Since the founding of the State, Ireland has been unable to create jobs on a scale sufficient to meet the requirements of its potential growth in population. The consequences of such failure have been high levels of unemployment among the employee labour force and high rates of emigration. In this chapter our purpose is to examine the way in which the Irish State has sought to address the employment problem, particularly in the post-1958 period —…

The Distribution of Income in the Republic of Ireland
This study was made possible by the co-operation of the Central Statistics Office (CSO) in providing, the necessary analysis of the 1973 Household Budget Survey results. The specifications we devised for the data analysis were translated into computer programs and by special arrangement the CSO ran those programs on the 1973 Household Budg'et Survey tapes, forwarding the results to us after ensuring that all obligations of confidentiality to resp…
