  Dublin's teeming slums, long regarded as the worst in Europe, were teetering on the brink of structural and sanitary public catastrophe during the early twentieth century. To tackle the crisis, Herbert Simms was appointed the city's first housing architect. During a sixteen-year period, from 1932 until 1948, Simms and his team planned, commissioned and built an astounding 17,000 homes –some as inner-city flat complexes, others as family houses in newly-created suburbs such as Crumlin and Cabra.
  Like the city's acclaimed Georgian squares, the Simms-designed Corporation flats in particular have stood the test of time, injecting a touch of art deco and modernist glamour to neglected neighbourhoods. This comprehensive guide to the Simms buildings also highlights the many struggles with politicians and bureaucrats Simms and his staff experienced as they did their best to build well-designed, affordable housing for the people of Dublin.

  The Sociology of Happiness -...

  Happiness is often seen as a deeply personal and subjective experience, but from a sociological perspective, it is also shaped by broader social structures, cultural norms, and institutional influences. While psychological and biological factors contribute to individual well-being, sociology emphasizes the role of society in shaping what happiness means and how it is experienced. This chapter explores the ways in which social environments, relationships, and economic conditions influence happiness, highlighting the importance of social context in understanding well-being. 
  One of the key aspects of happiness from a sociological standpoint is that it is not simply an internal state but a social construct that varies across time and place. Different societies define happiness in different ways, influenced by cultural values, religious beliefs, and historical traditions. In some cultures, happiness is closely linked to material success and individual achievement, while in others, it is more connected to family, spirituality, or collective well-being. This variation suggests that happiness is not universal but shaped by the social world in which individuals live. 
  Social relationships play a crucial role in determining happiness. Studies have shown that people with strong social connections tend to report higher levels of life satisfaction and well-being. Family, friendships, and community bonds provide emotional support, a sense of belonging, and shared experiences that contribute to happiness. Conversely, social isolation, loneliness, and lack of meaningful relationships can have negative effects on mental and physical health, leading to lower levels of happiness. The sociological perspective on happiness underscores the idea that well-being is not just an individual pursuit but something deeply embedded in social interactions and networks.
