Product Description Crypto-Finance, Law and Regulation investigates whether crypto-finance will cause a paradigm shift in regulation from a centralised model to a model based on distributed consensus. This book explores the emergence of a decentralised and disintermediated crypto-market and investigates the way in which it can transform the financial markets. It examines three components of the financial market – technology, finance, and the law – and shows how their interrelationship dictates the structure of a crypto-market. It focuses on regulators’ enforcement policies and their jurisdiction over crypto-finance operators and participants. The book also discusses the latest developments in crypto-finance, and the advantages and disadvantages of crypto-currency as an alternative payment product. It also investigates how such a decentralised crypto-finance system can provide access to finance, promote a shared economy, and allow access to justice. By exploring the law, regulation and governance of crypto-finance from a national, regional and global viewpoint, the book provides a fascinating and comprehensive overview of this important topic and will appeal to students, scholars and practitioners interested in regulation, finance and the law.

The modernisation of Irish society, 1848-1918 (The Gill history of Ireland)

Gill and Macmillan

The Modernization of Irish Society

Gill & MacMillan, Limited

In surveying the period from the Famine in 1848 to the triumph of Sinn Fein in the 1918 general election, Joe Lee argues that Ireland became one of the most modern and advanced political cultures in the world during that time. Lee contends that the Famine death-rate, however terrible, was not unprecedented. What was different was the post-Famine response to the catastrophe. The sharply increased rate of emigration left behind a population of tenant farmers engaged in market orientated agriculture and determined to protect and improve their position. It was this group that used the British political system so skillfully, a process elaborated and refined in the Land League and Home Rule movements under Parnell. The Parnell era left a lasting legacy of modern political engagement and organization which was carried on in essentials by the later Home Rule party and by Sinn Fein, and - beyond the terminal date of the book - would make its mark on the politics of independent Ireland.

The unapologetically mad mood and tone of Dada and Surrealism began as a response to the horrors of World War I. From entering a urinal in an art competition to declaring their own Pope to creating a telephone from a lobster, the Dadas and Surrealists — Tzara, Arp, Duchamp, Dali, Man Ray, and others — defied convention, sneered at traditional sensibilities, and embraced, even flaunted, nihilism. This colorful overview examines the art, artists, legendary pranks, and philosophical underpinnings of two of the most irreverent, imaginative movements in 20th century art, as well as their continuing influence on contemporary art and culture.

At various times in history, there are individuals whose impact, influence and personality place them on a par with those great impersonal forces and decisive events that shape a nation's destiny. In modern Ireland, such a man was Eamon de Valera. Sole surviving commandant of the 1916 Rising, President of the first Dail, founder ot the Fianna Fail party, Taoiseach for twenty years, President for fourteen years: the name de Valera evokes a powerful response right across the Irish political spectrum, ranging from loval devotion to the most bitter condemnation. In this book, two leading historians analyse de Valera's Ireland, his achievements and his failures, his vision and his legacy. They portray the great social and political issues that dominated his lifetime. Brilliantly illustrated from the copious picture research for RTE's centenary television series, here is a panorama of turbulent history, and a tough critical appraisal of the making of the modern Republic.
