<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>This is the definitive study of the Irish general election of 2016 - the most dramatic election in a generation. Among other things it resulted in the worst electoral outcome for Ireland's established parties, the most fractionalized party system in the history of the state, along with the emergence of new parties and groups, some of these of a 'populist' hue. This was not only one of the most volatile elections in Ireland, but in Europe, with among the lowest of election turnouts in the state's history. These outcomes follow a pattern seen across a number of Western Europe's established democracies in which the 'deep crisis' of the Great Recession has wreaked havoc on party systems. <br /> <br /> <em>The post-crisis Irish voter</em> assesses this most extraordinary of Irish elections both in its Irish and wider cross-national context. With contributions from leading scholars on Irish elections and parties, and using a unique dataset - the Irish National Election Study (INES) 2016 - this volume explores voting patterns at Ireland's first post crisis election and it considers the implications for the electoral landscape and politics in Ireland.<br /> <br /> This book will be of interest to scholars of parties and elections. It provides important supplementary reading to any university courses on Irish politics and it will be of interest to general readers interested in contemporary Irish affairs.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>This is the definitive study of the Irish general election of 2016 - the most dramatic election in a generation.
