Is Ireland still a neutral nation-or is that just a comforting illusion?In Ireland at a Crossroads: The Triple Lock & Neutrality, legal scholar Ty Murphy exposes how foreign lobbying, NATO pressure, and expanding EU military entanglements are chipping away at one of the nation’s most cherished principles: neutrality.At the heart of this book lies the 'Triple Lock'-a constitutional safeguard requiring approval from the United Nations, the Irish Government, and the Dáil before any overseas deployment of Irish troops. But this safeguard is now under siege. As international alliances deepen, Ireland risks being pulled into a geopolitical orbit that threatens its sovereignty, its democracy, and its moral stance on the world stage.This isn’t just a policy debate-it’s a wake-up call. Murphy cuts through the jargon to expose what’s really at stake and presents a bold, actionable blueprint to protect Irish neutrality, including a proposed constitutional referendum and critical legal reforms.Written for citizens, not bureaucrats, this is a book for anyone who believes that peace is strength-and that independence must be defended not just on the battlefield, but at the ballot box.Timely. Urgent. Unflinching.This is the definitive guide to Ireland’s crossroads moment.
