'Race', Nation and Belonging in Ireland

'Race', Nation and Belonging in Ireland
(2011)
Mitchell, Jonathan
Abstract:
Despite consistent efforts to counteract those attitudes and practices that give rise to it, most putatively modern Western nations continue to experience the concrete effects of racial discrimination. This essay argues that nationality is all too easily conflated with ‘race’ or ethnicity, such that a seeming essence or givenness is manifested amongst all those within a particular geographic boundary. It is suggested that on the contrary, there is nothing natural about nationality as commonly understood; this being so, it must be continually shored up and reconstituted through social, linguistic and material practices. For modern nations in the West, this has often entailed the marking or identification - racialisation - of non-nationals and non-white ‘Others’. A logic of inside/outside subtends the concept of nation wherein such Others are the ‘constitutive outside’ that invisibly clarifies and reinforces the status of those within. Nation, then, tacitly asserts and valorises its o...

“He thinks he is Polish, but the way he acts is Irish”: the negotiation of family language Policy within Polish migrant and transnational families in Ireland
(2020)
Connaughton-Crean, Lorraine
Abstract:
In an era of increased transnationalism, cultural and linguistic diversity has become a prominent feature of Irish society. Between the years of 1995 and 2008, Ireland experienced high rates of inward migration for the first time, which has subsequently led to an emerging second generation of migrants in Ireland (Röder, Ward, Frese, & Sánchez, 2014). While the Polish community is the largest non-Irish group in Ireland, little is known yet about the unique linguistic and cultural challenges faced by Polish migrant and transnational families in Ireland. Family language policy (FLP) research depicts “how languages are managed, learned and negotiated within families” (King, Fogle, & Logan-Terry, 2008, p. 907). FLP studies of migrant and transnational families in Ireland are limited and the current study aims to explore how individual members within Polish families in Ireland jointly construct and negotiate FLP in the home domain. The current study contributes to the field of FLP...

A feminist geopolitics of Ryan's Daughter (1970)

A feminist geopolitics of Ryan's Daughter (1970)
(2018)
de la Garza, Armida
Abstract:
This article considers how history and film intersect with gender and ethnicity in Ryan’s Daughter. Taking feminist geopolitics as its theoretical framework, this article examines how gender informs the past as depicted on this film and at the time of its release through the feminisation of space, including through the tourist gaze it elicits. Central to geopolitics is cartography, employed to plot the location of resources, bringing boundaries into existence and often assisting with the strategic planning of invasions. This article analyses Ryan’s Daughter through a feminist geopolitical lens in order to explore how films act as maps, both in their guise of ideological tools and as cognitive schemata to orientate action, and in so doing illuminates the narrative and visual geopolitical gendering of Ireland, both in 1970 and through its construction of 1916.

A Lacanian psychoanalytic interpretation of conflict in Northern Ireland
(2010)
Millar, Adrian
Abstract:
Revised version of a paper presented at the International Association for Conflict Management 14th International Conference, “Towards a Dialogue between Conflict Theories and Practices Across Paradigms and Cultures”, ESSEC Business School, Cergy, France, 24-27 June 2001
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the power of Lacanian theory to bring to light the unconscious dynamics at work in the formation of ethno-national political identities. I begin by identifying the need for a Lacanian approach to communal identity. I then apply Lacanian psychoanalysis to interviews I have carried out into republicans and loyalists in Belfast, Northern Ireland, highlighting what it is both communities are in denial of as they constitute their self-interpretations. I point out how such denial helps sustain or reproduce relations of domination. I conclude that Lacanian psychoanalysis enhances our understanding and study of inter-religious and ethno-national conflicts and can be readily applied...

A reception analysis of a development-oriented television programme by a multi-ethnic society
(2000)
Ahmad, Jamaliah
Abstract:
The mam objective of this study is to find out how a multi-racial society interprets development-onented television programmes. To ensure that this research is socially meaningful, the interpretation of the development-onented television programmes was done within the framework of the social and cultural conditions of the Malaysian society where the study took place. In order to understand this phenomenon better we have looked into the Reception Analysis Theory. This theory seeks to integrate Social Science perspectives and Humanistic perspectives by adopting empirical approach to audience research. The literature also suggested that Reception Analysis is a step closer to a better approach in studying media audiences because its methodology stresses that comparative empirical analysis must be earned out between the media discourses and the audience discourses. In this study we also wanted to find out to what extent ethnic-income-based factors influence the members’ decoding or mea...

A study of the involvement of Traveller parents in Traveller preschools in Ireland
(2014)
Boyle, Anne
Abstract:
This study examines the involvement of Traveller parents in Traveller preschools in Ireland. Travellers are a distinct cultural group in Ireland who have traditionally experienced educational disadvantage. Parental involvement is widely acknowledged as having a positive impact on children’s school success. Traveller preschools were established from the 1970s onwards, as an educational intervention for Traveller children, and continued until 2011 when the Department of Education and Skills withdrew funding. This thesis sets out to answer three main questions: What was the historical and policy context for Traveller preschools? What are Traveller parents’ perspectives on schooling? In what ways were parents involved in Traveller preschools? The methodology is mainly qualitative, drawing on interpretivism, social constructivism and critical theory. A variety of methods is employed, including document analysis, focus group and individual interviews, and a questionnaire survey. This stud...

An exploration of the experiences of minority faith and minority worldview students of a Roman Catholic school ethos in post-primary schools in the Republic of Ireland
(2018)
Stapleton, Catherine
Abstract:
This study explores the school-based experiences of a sample of students of minority faith or minority worldview attending Post-Primary schools with a Catholic ethos. The primary aim of this research is to give voice to these students regarding their experiences of a Catholic school ethos and how this ethos caters for the spiritual and moral development of this cohort of students. A secondary aim of the research is to explore the relevance and practise of identity humility theory in relation to these students’ lived experiences of schools whose ethos may be at variance with the students’ espoused belief systems. This qualitative study draws on semi-structured interviews with a purposive sample of eighteen self-selecting students who identified as people of minority faith or belief worldviews attending a Catholic post-primary school. Interpretative Phenomenological analysis (IPA) was used to interrogate the data set. The emerging themes were further reflected on in terms of the the...

An investigation into the Experiences of international Muslim students in an Irish university
(2017)
Gamze Üstündağ, Buse
Abstract:
Ireland has transformed from being a country of emigration to a country of immigration within the past two decades. The transformation is evident in Irish higher education which currently recruits over one hundred thousand international students from across the globe. Although Muslim immigration into Ireland began with international students who came to study in Royal College of Surgeons Ireland in 1950s, research on Muslim students, particularly international, in Irish higher education has largely been neglected to date. Consequently, this project explores the experiences of international Muslim students (IMS) in an Irish university, asks whether a religious identity is a pertinent factor in intercultural contact, and investigates internationalisation of higher education in Ireland from the perspective of IMS. The study used a constructive grounded theory approach within an interpretative framework. 23 semi-structured, qualitative interviews were conducted with IMS from undergradu...

Between the city and the village: the differential impact of the predatory and absentee state on indigenous land rights and deforestation in Bangladesh and India
(2018)
Scanlan, Oliver James
Abstract:
Smallholders in the Global South are often excluded from their land rights by exclusionary policies of conservation, which are intensifying in the face of a changing climate. Such conflicts are often the most problematic where they overlap with the extant political-marginalisation of the smallholder, articulated in ethnic terms. The world’s Indigenous Peoples, being among the most vulnerable to dispossession while also tending to inhabit forested spaces, are of central importance to these debates. South Asia comprises a “natural laboratory” of different institutional arrangements that mediate the relationship between the State and the land and forestry rights of Indigenous Peoples. This study uses ethnographic methods, remote sensing analysis of forest cover change and archival research to test whether this institutional variation leads to differences in dispossession and deforestation, and offer conclusions as to why this is the case. The Garo community inhabits both Meghalaya stat...

Beyond the Catholic-Protestant divide : religious and ethnic diversity in the North and South of Ireland
(2010)
Feldman, Alice
Abstract:
Paper presented to the IBIS conference Old structures, new beliefs: religion, community and politics in contemporary Ireland, University College Dublin, 15 May 2003.
This paper explores the challenges posed by the ethnic diversification of contemporary Irish society for conventional understandings of and responses to issues of religion, community and politics. It argues that the particularities of social and institutional histories and structures in the North and South have eclipsed wider considerations of both race and ethnicity and religious identity beyond the Catholic-Protestant divide. This has, in turn, served to obscure the many dynamic changes that such diversity has catalysed both within Irish civil society generally, and within the island’s traditional religious institutions themselves. The paper discusses the promises and potentials of conceptualising religion or religious identity and the relationships between religion and ethnicity within broader cultural and politi...

Circuits of journalism: mediating Irishness in the digital disapora press.
(2019)
Kirk, Niamh
Abstract:
This thesis addresses the process representing Ireland and Irishness in the digital diaspora press. It examines the production of diaspora journalism in the hybrid media environment through the lens of the circuit of cultural production, establishing journalistic and cultural influences on the process of representing Irishness. Diaspora journalism has important implications for recreating ethnic identity among the deterritorialised Irish audience, but little is understood about what aspects of Irish culture diaspora news media represent or to what extent these representations can be regarded as homogeneous across different hostlands. This research establishes that there are regional differences in both what stories about Ireland are reproduced in the diaspora press and how Irishness is represented. It identifies a range of material, organisational and cultural factors from journalism that shape what diaspora newsrooms can produce as well as how news is presented and distributed. A...

Class, race, gender and the production of knowledge: considerations on the decolonisation of knowledge

Sheehan, Helena
Abstract:
How do class, race and gender impact on the production of knowledge? Is it enough to include those who have been excluded from advanced knowledge? Or has knowledge itself been tainted by the exclusions of class, race, gender and colonial conquest? How to proceed with such realisations? How do we decolonise our minds and our universities? Should we repudiate existing knowledge and start again at zero? Or should we return to the indigenous knowledge of our ancestors? Or should we engage in a radical and critical transformation? How has Rhodes Must Fall dramatised these dilemmas? What does Marxism have to offer in working through these issues?

Constructing inclusive education in a neo-liberal context: promoting inclusion of Arab-Australian students in an Australian context.
(2010)
Kamp, Annelies; Mansouri, Fethi
Abstract:
School systems are a major social change agent capable of challenging social inequalities and economic disadvantages. Yet, while schools in Australia are being confronted with increasingly culturally diverse populations as well as an increasing focus on student retention, this transformative role is increasingly being played out in a broader educational context that has been found to replicate rather than challenge patterns of social inequality. Successive governments in Australia have responded to this context with a raft of policy initiatives. This paper, based on three-year longitudinal research undertaken in the city of Melbourne, outlines this policy context and introduces the theoretical approach that underpins its innovative approach to managing cultural diversity in educational institutions. It argues for, and presents, a multidimensional model for managing cultural diversity in schools, one that provides the tools for transformative practices to be undertaken to effect posi...

Counting on the 'Celtic Tiger'
(2007)
King O'Riain, Rebecca
Abstract:
On 23 April 2006, an ethnicity question appeared for the first time on the census in the Republic of Ireland. This article analyses the evolution and addition of this question as an illustration of a specific process of state racialization in the Irish census. As such, it illuminates the social and political contestation of the meaning of race, racial categories and ethnicity in the Republic of Ireland through an examination of the interplay between demographers' needs for simple categorization and the complex lived reality of race and ethnicity in Ireland. Driven by the `Celtic Tiger' economic boom and reversing the historic trend of Irish emigration, immigration has increased to levels not generally seen before 1996 in Ireland. The article shows how a growing diverse population of immigrants to Ireland, an increased awareness of equality legislation and a need to rationalize the statistical systems in Ireland all created a desire to enumerate ethnic groups. The article a...

Creating a ‘third space’ through narration in Mercedes Valdivieso’s Maldita yo entre las mujeres
(2019)
Broderick, Céire
Abstract:
This article applies Homi K. Bhabha’s theory of the Third Space (2004) to an analysis of the narrative structures employed by Mercedes Valdivieso in Maldita yo entre las mujeres (1991). Considering the representation of genders and ethnicities in this historical novel set in the seventeenth century, it argues that Valdivieso’s fragmented, cyclical and oneiric narrative reflects the complex forms of identities illustrated in the novel. These identities contradict the definitions promoted by the European patriarchal society of the time. They are incomplete and under constant negotiation. It is argued here that in the reconstruction of the infamous historical figure, Catalina de los Ríos y Lisperguer, Valdivieso creates a ‘third space’ through these narrative techniques, and in so doing, allows for heterogeneous, nuanced permutations of identities to be constructed.

Xiao, Mimi; O’Neill, Ciaran
Abstract:
Introduction: As part of a control strategy current guidance in the UK recommends more intense surveillance of HbA1C levels among those of South-east Asian or Chinese ethnicity above specified BMI thresholds. The objective of this study was to determine whether disparities in the identification and control of diabetes in England persisted despite these guidelines and assess current strategies in light of these findings. Methods: Data were extracted from the 2013 Health Survey for England that included ethnicity, BMI status and HbA1C levels. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analyses were used to examine relationships among undetected diabetes, poorly controlled diabetes and a range of covariates including ethnicity and BMI. Concentration indices were used to examine the socio-economic gradient in disease detection and control among and between ethnic groups. Results: In regression models that controlled for a range of covariates Asians were found to have a 5% point high...

DOMESTIC BOUNDARIES Privacy, Visibility and the Norwegian Window
(2005)
Garvey, Pauline
Abstract:
The article presents an exploration of domestic borders in the Norwegian town of Skien. Differences between homes may be minimal, however the differentiation between homes, can occasionally, be marked (Wallman, 1978: 203). This observation has relevance for Norwegian and Somali house- holds whereby perceptions of domestic boundaries, visibility and definitions of privacy are analysed. The domestic window is shown to provide one material medium for the negotiation of ethnic identity and social classifi- cation. I argue notions of the private are dynamic and contextual and frequently have less to do with ‘being seen’ than with a perception of the social gaze. Consequently, looking at ethnic minorities, Norwegian locals and the private home in Skien does not just imply investigating the link between visibility and privacy but questioning the ideas on which this link is based, and rethinking notions of privacy itself.
