520    The questions surrounding how the Irish economy was 
       brought to the brink—who was to blame, and who should pay 
       for these mistakes—have been rightly debated at length. 
       But beyond this very legitimate exercise, there are deeper
       questions that need to be answered. These questions relate
       to why we made the decisions we did, not just in the last 
       10 years, but over the last 80. How did certain industries
       become prominent at the expense of others, banking as 
       opposed to fisheries, international markets as opposed to 
       indigenous industry and job creation? Are our problems 
       structural in nature, and most importantly, what do we 
       need to know to make sure that this crisis does not happen
       again? This book looks at the development of the Irish 
       economy over the past eight decades, and argues that the 
       2008 financial crisis, up to and including the IMF bailout
       of 2010 and the subsequent change of government, cannot be
       explained simply by the moral failings of those in banking
       or property development alone. The problems are deeper, 
       more intricate, and more dangerous if we remain unaware of
       them, but also potentially avoidable in the future if we 
       break the cycle.
