Book Launch & Public Talk

Kieran Allen will talk about 'The Corporate Take-Over of Ireland' at The Grand Hotel Tralee, Wednesday 4 April @ 8PM. Admission FREE. Hosted by Tralee Socialist Workers Party.



"The Corporate Take Over of Ireland" is a new book which examines the effects of Corporations on Irish life and shows how democratic decision making has been subverted by money.

Efforts to ban advertising to children and to restrict promotion of alcohol have been prevented by large global corporations.
A new medical apartheid is being created in health as huge US health corporations stand ready to move into the private health care market.
Waste collection is no longer organised as a public service but is being turned into big business.
State enterprises such as Aer Lingus and Eircom have been handed over to private investors.

"The Corporate Take Over of Ireland" calls for a new movement of resistance that will put people before profit and bring about more democracy.

Dr Kieran Allen lectures in the Department of Sociology, University College Dublin, and has published widely, including his book "The Celtic Tiger: The Myth of Social Partnership"
