While four of the signatories of the 1916 Proclamation were poets, you would be hard pressed to find the same number in today's D il chamber. A man who fits the bill as poet and politician is Michael D. Higgins - perhaps one of the few public representatives today who enjoys widespread respect across all political hues. Causes For Concern covers Michael D.'s personal history, Irish politics, culture and broadcasting, global politics, and the human condition. Drawing on material produced over more than forty years, Michael D. Higgins discusses the Irish political system, the role of the Left, Nicaragua and South American politics, Irish film, his own personal journey and the issue of human rights and the best ways to protect them. The book features an extensive foreword by commentator and writer Declan Kiberd.
