Ireland - A European Role Model ?
Ireland - A European Role Model ?
World Political and Economic Geography
Metropolitan University Prague
Martin Kolmhofer, Ph.D.
Presentation to Institute of Directors on Q2 economic data
This document analyzes Ireland's recent economic growth and whether it represents a true recovery or statistical anomaly. It provides statistics showing that Ireland's GDP and GNP have grown significantly in recent years, with GDP growth reaching 7.7% in 2014, the fastest pace since 2007. This growth has been driven by a rebound in domestic demand and a strong increase in exports. Economists and media outlets have reacted positively but some question if the strength of the recovery can be sustained.
Presentation to Social Media Conference
The document discusses Ireland's growing public debt crisis. It estimates that Ireland's general government debt will reach approximately €250 billion by 2014, up drastically from €47 billion in 2007. This growth is primarily due to large budget deficits from 2008-2011, billions borrowed to recapitalize banks, and promissory notes issued to distressed financial institutions. While some assets may offset this debt, sustainability concerns remain due to risks of further bank losses, deficit overruns, and debt interest costs totaling billions annually. The outlook remains uncertain depending on maintaining deficit reduction and economic recovery.
NERI Seminar Dublin: How much would a Financial Transactions Tax raise?
In 2011 the European Commission outlined proposals for a Europe wide financial transactions tax (FTT). Since then the proposal has been pursued by ten countries under ‘enhanced cooperation’ procedures with plans evolving to introduce the tax during 2016/2017. To date Ireland has not signed up to adopting a FTT.
This paper estimates the revenue that Ireland would collect from participating in the European FTT. Drawing on data from official sources, it first establishes the size of the FTT tax base for Ireland. Subsequently, the paper estimates a baseline tax revenue and considers the robustness of this estimate using a suite of sensitivity tests.
The paper finds that were Ireland to adopt a FTT, the net revenue yield would be between €320m and €360m per annum.
Real Estate Investment Trusts
The document summarizes the key aspects of UK Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) prior to changes made by the Finance Act of 2012. It discusses what a UK REIT is, the legal structure, capital and listing requirements, restrictions on investors, asset/income tests, distribution requirements, and tax treatment at the REIT and investor levels under the old legislation. It then provides a brief summary of the changes and opportunities provided by the new REIT legislation resulting from the Finance Act of 2012, including the abolition of the 2% entry charge and more flexible listing requirements.

Reit roadshow 07 15 14
Iron Mountain converted to a REIT structure effective January 1, 2014 to enhance stockholder returns. As a REIT, Iron Mountain will be able to acquire additional real estate assets and benefit from tax advantages. However, the conversion will impact cash flows in 2014, requiring incremental borrowing and potential equity issuance to fund the special distribution and other one-time costs. Going forward, normalized cash flows are expected to cover the ordinary dividend and core real estate investments.

Ireland: Politics, Class, and Gender
Ireland has a complex political and social history defined by class and gender divisions. In his lecture, Dr. Conor McCabe discusses how politics in Ireland have been shaped by conflicts between social classes and by patriarchal norms that disadvantaged women for much of the country's history. While progress has been made, the legacy of these divisions still influences Irish society today.
Trade union left forum oct 19
Trade unions must recognize the importance of social reproduction and feminist economics. Dr. Conor McCabe spoke at the Trade Union Left Forum about how social reproduction, such as childcare and housework, is essential to the economy but often unpaid or underpaid labor performed mostly by women. Unions need to address issues facing women like low wages, lack of benefits, and unequal division of domestic labor to build working class power and solidarity.
Presentation to Tom Stokes Branch, Unite the Union 12.10.19
Irish Finance for Activists provides progressive and radical responses and strategies for finance in Ireland. It discusses that NAMA acquired approximately 16,000 properties and over €62 billion in debts from the top 190 debtors, who overborrowed in a Ponzi-like scheme that inflated asset values unsustainably. Brendan McDonagh, the CEO of NAMA, noted the disconnect between economic growth rates of 8-9% and bank lending growth of 35-40%, and that overpaying for assets caused the problems.
Lessons from the Financial Crisis - Spare Room, Cork, 29.9.19
The chief executive of Irish Life and Permanent said the government guarantee would allow banks to borrow more cheaply, as the "oxygen supply" to Irish banks was being cut off. Brendan McDonagh, the CEO of NAMA, said the problems were caused by overpaying for assets, with a small number of debtors accounting for €62 billion in debts, resembling a "Ponzi scheme". The document discusses concepts of "mediated corruption", where gains from corruption may indirectly benefit those associated with the public official, rather than directly benefitting the official. It can involve undue influence on policymaking by vested interests at the expense of the public.
Spare Room Workshop 28 Sept 2019
The document discusses the concept of social reproduction and what a feminist city might look like. It summarizes that social reproduction, including activities that renew and maintain life like childcare, are as fundamental to society as production of goods. However, the organization of this work and social relationships around it have varied widely and been central to gender inequality. A feminist city would value and support social reproduction work through common resources self-governed by communities rather than treating them as public, private, or state domains.
Towards a democratization of money, credit and financial systems
The document summarizes comments from Brendan McDonagh, the Chief Executive of NAMA, about the causes of Ireland's financial crisis. McDonagh states that a relatively small number of people took on large amounts of debt totaling €62 billion to purchase overvalued assets, similar to a Ponzi scheme. Irish banks lent too much money, inflating asset prices in a way that was unsustainable given Ireland's actual economic growth rate, causing a disconnect between the economy and bank lending rates of 35-40% annually. This overpaying for overvalued assets ultimately caused problems.
Mary mellor, an eco feminist proposal, nlr 116 117, march june 2019
This document summarizes Mary Mellor's proposal for an eco-feminist model of "sufficiency provisioning" as an alternative economic strategy. The key points are:
1) Current economic models and green strategies fail to recognize the essential role of unpaid reproductive labor, mainly done by women, that sustains both human and environmental life.
2) An eco-feminist model of "sufficiency provisioning" would make meeting basic human needs like housing, food, and care for all within environmental limits the top priority, guided by principles of social justice and sustainability.
3) Democratizing the money system could help transition to this model by supporting more localized, cooperative production to meet needs rather than
Feminist Economics, Finance and the Commons
The document discusses the history of capitalism and its relationship to social reproduction. It argues that the witch hunts in Europe helped lay the foundations for capitalist society by weakening peasant resistance to privatization of land and the imposition of state control. This destroyed old belief systems and practices that were incompatible with capitalism. The document also discusses Fernand Braudel's analysis of different sectors in pre-industrial Europe, with capitalism existing in a narrow zone alongside a market economy and non-market sectors. Social reproduction, including unpaid domestic work, was considered unproductive and outside the realm of economics. The creation of export-oriented industries employing women in developing countries in the 1960s-80s is also mentioned.
Feminist Economics, Finance, and the Commons
The document discusses the history of capitalism and its relationship to non-capitalist systems. It argues that capitalism in the past only occupied a small part of the economy and existed alongside much larger non-capitalist systems. It also discusses Fernand Braudel's distinction between the economy, capitalism, and a lowest non-economic stratum. The document advocates understanding capitalism in relation to the surrounding non-capitalist context from which it was defined.
Ireland and Corruption
This document examines state-corporate crime in Ireland using a case study approach. It discusses concepts like mediated corruption and how corruption can indirectly benefit political actors. It also analyzes Ireland's relatively low levels of corruption in the early 1900s-1920s, when collective moral bonds and respect for the rule of law were strong. However, it suggests definitions of crime are politically shaped. It examines Ireland's 2008 banking crisis and the government guarantee that benefited banks over depositors. Finally, it discusses NAMA and the small number of debtors behind huge loans, reflecting an unsustainable bubble.
Feminist economics, finance, and the commons
This document discusses several topics related to feminist economics, finance, and the commons, including:
1) Capitalism and "new enclosures" of the commons, how capitalism has expanded over the last century.
2) Marxist feminist perspectives on social reproduction and how unpaid domestic labor sustains society.
3) The role of the commons and potential strategies for change, such as recognizing and valuing social reproductive labor.
Feminist Economics, the Commons, and Irish Activist Strategies
The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on air pollution. Researchers analyzed data from dozens of countries and found that lockdowns led to an average decline of nearly 30% in nitrogen dioxide levels across major cities. However, they also observed that the reductions in air pollution were temporary and that levels began to rise again as restrictions eased and human activity increased.
