Multinational Companies Social Interaction

... the Irish economy. One may look at this number
from an executive MNC perspective and say that
there is not a very large pool of perspective
employee candidates for an emerging MNC. A
statistic that combats this concern is that 47 %
of the population in Ireland is between the ages
of 15 and 44. An overlapping figure, also, is that
Ireland has the youngest population in Europe,
with over 40 % under the age of 25 years. There
should not be much of a big worry as far as the
future exchange rate ...

1,097 words
By the end of the 1930 's the Northern State had
existed for almost two decades, as had its
Southern counterpart. During this time the two
states set themselves up in a way that seemed to
justify the fears that both communities, Catholic
and Protestant had when the possibility of Home
Rule was first talked about in the 1880 's. The
Northern state was one where the Protestant
majority was in power and treated the Catholic
minority as a threat, thus realising the fears of
that community. The South...

Irish Bagpipes (Brian Boru pipe) The bagpipes have
been a huge part of Irish music for many years.

the pipes really came from Ireland. The earliest
bag pipes date back to 4000 B. C. in the Middle
East, where a bagpipe is found in Chaldean
sculptures. This evidence shows it is ancient,
certainly as old as the harp and nearly as old as
the drum. Greeks, Egyptians and Romans all marched
to the sound of the pipes to battle. As for

Regarded by many as Brian Friel's theatrical
masterpiece, Seamus Deane described Translations
as a sequence of events in history which are
transformed by his writing into a parable of
events in the present day (Introduction 22). The
play is in many respects an intelligent and
enlightening metaphor for the situation in
Northern Ireland. The aims of raising cultural
awareness and dispelling socio-political apathy in
the North were central to the objectives of the
field day group. However, despite ...

Swift Modest Proposal

? A Modest Proposal? by Jonathan Swift challenges
his audience, the affluent Englishmen, to decide
for themselves to act as humans with rationality
or as animals with basic survival instincts. Swift
brilliantly orchestrates the methods of satire,
tone, and imagery to create an exaggerated
portrait of Ireland? s situation in the
eighteenth-century. The inhumane exploitation and
monopolization of estates by their English
neighbors have left Irishmen in deepest of
despairs and anguish for their pov...

20 Th Century Irish Immigrants

INTRODUCTION The history of Ireland that most
distressful nation is full of drama and tragedy,
but one of the most interesting stories is about
what happened to the Irish during the
mid-nineteenth century and how millions of Irish
came to live in America (Purcell 31). Although the
high point of the story was the years of the
devastating potato famine from 1845 to 1848,
historians have pointed out that immigrating from
Ireland was becoming more popular before the
famine and continued until the tu...

Ireland is a country that has had many crop
failures but the Famine of 1845 - 1849 was the
worst ever. The people had become so dependent on
the potato that when it failed they had nothing
else. They had no money, no parliament in country
to give them relief and no rights to keep them
from being evicted from the land they diligently
worked each year for their landlords. Many died,
many immigrated to other nations but those who
stayed cried out for security. In the years

Nationalism in Ireland during the Nineteenth
Century After the Act of Union in 1801 the fate of
the Irish people was in the hands of British M. P.
s. They ruled the majority in Parliament and were
making all of the decisions without much regard
for the opinion from the people of Ireland. In
order for the voices of the Irish people to be
heard there would have to be a new nationalist
approach to dealing with the British Parliament.

Modest Proposal Jonathan Swift

Have You Eaten Yet? : Swift s Final Solution As a
lately favored eighteenth century essay, Jonathan
Swift s Proposal has been canonized as a satirical
model of wit. As will be discussed shortly, Swift
s essay is often seen as an allegory for England s
oppression of Ireland. Swift, himself and Irishman
(Tucker 142), would seem to have pointed his razor
wit against the foreign nation responsible for his
city s ruin. Wearing the lens of a New
Historicist, however, requires that we reexamine
the pow...

OBrien 208 pp, Weidenfeld A friend tells this
story about Edna OBrien; he was perhaps 10 at the
time. His father, a writer of some renown, had a
cabin in the woods, a holiday home for his large
family. Guests sometimes came and shared the cosy
if cramped quarters, including a bathroom at the
far end of a kitchen where the writer and his
family liked to sit at the table for leisurely
meals and animated talk. During one such meal my
friend recalls t...
