Wide Awake in Ireland

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A three-part series on Ireland by John Waters. This final programme looks at the question of Irish identity in the modem world. Is a clearer definition of Inshness now, perhaps, a prerequisite of survival? This programme looks at the connections between Ireland and the Third World, and the attempts it is making now to face up to these connections. Modem Ireland is a mixed-up place, but in a modem world, need Ireland's confusion any longer be the problem it has appeared?
