Аннотация:

Brian Lenihan was Minister for Finance at the time of the recent and dramatic political and economic crisis in Ireland, and was the lynchpin in the rescue package sought by the Irish Government. The recollections within this powerful new book throw light on Lenihan s political career from its earliest days to his untimely death in 2011. The perceptive and timely contributions arise from those who were directly involved with him at all stages, and include those of high-profile public figures and political insiders from all sides of the Irish political spectrum. From the international stage Christine Lagarde offers her memories of the man and the crises and challenges they faced together. Brian Lenihan s achievements and how he achieved them are documented and discussed, such as his work as Minister of State for Children, giving a rare insight into his persona and principles throughout his life and career. An unflinching public servant and adept political animal, Lenihan was hugely tested in the wake of Ireland s economic crisis, yet his paramount desire was to work in the best interests of his country. The legacy of that ambition is debated in this unique collection which highlights his skills as a lawyer, academic and politician as well as describing Brian Lenihan the man through those who knew him on a more personal level.
