Business and government are two of the most important actors in shaping our lives. This new four volume collection from Routledge’s Major Works series, Critical Perspectives on Business and Management, will explore four key areas of the relationship: First, what is the balance of power between business and government? Second, what trends are apparent in the balance of power between business and government? Third, how effective is the relationship between business and government in terms of promoting economic growth and development? Fourth, can business be mobilized, and if so how, to help solve societal problems by means other than legislation?In addressing these questions the editor will gather together the key writings – both classic works and contemporary scholarship - to meet the need for an authoritative reference work to make sense of the subject’s vast literature. With a new introduction by the editor and a full index, this will be a valuable one stop research resource for both student and scholar.

With its roots in the devotional verse of the early Christian church and the long lyric poems of the Irish bards, Irish poetry has a rich and robust tradition both of engagement and self-reflection. It has grappled long with politics and has provided the most eloquent response to Ireland's turbulent history, mediating and mitigating histories of loyalty and loss; it has soaked itself in the Irish landscape and Celtic myth; it has encompassed religion, so much a part of Ireland's cultural heritage. At the same time Irish poets have given their own original slant to everyday experience and affairs of the heart.Thematically organized and spanning many centuries, this selection also features a section of Gaelic poetry in translation, notably excerpts from the 18th-century epic masterpiece, Brian Merriman's The Midnight Court.
