Housing the People, Building the State

In this illustrated talk, Ruth McManus discusses the development of housing policy in Ireland from 1922 to 1932. This first decade after independence saw the new government tackling a major housing problem. How did it go about tackling the problem? What was built? Have these houses stood the test of time? Explore these questions and share your stories.

The talk is accompanied by an exhibition and associated website: www.housingthepeople.ie.

Dr Ruth McManus is Associate Professor in Geography at DCU.
