Book Description
Understanding Limerick is an edited collection featuring contributions from leading Irish scholars in Sociology, Social Policy, Criminology and Urban Geography. Limerick city has some of the most severely disadvantaged neighbourhoods in the Republic of Ireland. The city has also experienced a range of problems in relation to organized crime. This collection shows how social exclusion and poverty-related criminality developed in Limerick city. In a special study on fear and feuding, Niamh Hourigan examines the distinctive contours of gangland feuding and community violence in Limerick. Contributors with expertise in gender studies, urban deprivation, media analysis and housing underline how the social exclusion evident in Limerick is linked to broader patterns of inequality in Irish society. By piecing together these expert perspectives, a picture emerges of a city with tremendous strengths which is nevertheless facing significant challenges. Book jacket.
