520 This book is based on research and observations undertaken
for the authors PhD thesis at the National University of
Ireland, and represents a case study of national and
regional campaigns against both the Irish states Regional
Waste Management Plans and the corporate sectors attempts
to develop waste incinerators or dumps in various parts of
Ireland. This book provides an in depth account of the
mobilizing patterns and framing processes of community
campaigns which emerged in the wake of the Irish states
introduction of regional plans for waste management, which
included plans for municipal waste to energy plants or
incinerators. It is the only book with a sole focus on
this aspect of Irish society during the Celtic Tiger boom
which preceded the current economic downturn, and examines
policy, population, development social issues and local
and national electoral processes in detail at a time of
immense change in the Republic of Ireland. As such, it
provides a salient insight into the societal shifts which
provide opportunities for social movements to oppose state
or corporate plans which may be perceived to have human
health or environmental risks associated with them.
