Summary

David McWilliams: The Pope's Children - The New Irish Elite

A remarkable observation about today's Ireland is a fun and hedonistic success story of a country. Named after the ironic coincidence of the Irish baby boom of the late 1970s, which occurred nine months (almost to the day) after Pope John Paul II visited Dublin, "The Pope's Children" is both a tribute and an irresistibly witty portrait of the first generation of the Celtic Tiger - the people who prospered from the economic miracle that catapulted Ireland, after centuries of bitter poverty, into a nation that today enjoys one of the highest standards in the world.

"The Pope's Children" by David McWilliams was the best-selling book in Ireland in 2006, selling more than 100,000 copies. But such a thing could be expected from an expert like McWilliams - one of the most famous Irish journalists writes columns in respected Irish newspapers, hosts his own shows on Irish radio and television, and during his successful journalistic career he interviewed some of the most influential and famous people of our time, among others Henry Kissinger, Mikhail Gorbachev and Hillary Clinton.

He started his career as an economist and banker, he was the first economist to predict the Irish economic boom In the 1990s, and during his stay in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, he worked on bank strategies. All this led to the title of World Young Leader, as the World Economic Forum named him in 2007.

The algorithm brings the story of the young generation ruling Ireland, a story of success, a story of a country so similar to ours, a story that we could easily apply to our circumstances. Croatia, in fact, is not only similar to the Irish in nature, but also in the economy.

The explosion in the real estate market and the unbridled nation that loves to party are just some of the things that connect us with the Irish, and McWilliams' description of how Ireland got a German bank PIN and thus enabled itself to spend unbridled could be freely applied to our circumstances with the title "What awaits us after entering the Union".

The "Pope's Children" story is told with so much humor and style that after reading it will be clearer to you why the Irish are known as one of the friendliest and nicest nations.
