Civil society in the shadow of the Irish state
(2011)
Murphy, Mary
Civil society in the shadow of the Irish state
(2011)
Murphy, Mary
Abstract:
The dominant perception is that Irish society has responded to the current economic crisis in a relatively muted, moderate and passive fashion. How can we explain this apparent absence of political contestation or protest in Irish civil society? Various cultural and historical explanations can partially explain this apparent passivity; the approach here complements these explanations by exploring the institutional nature of the Irish state as an explanatory factor for the nature of the Irish civil society response to the crisis. Having first defined civil society and explored the scale and scope of Irish civil society, the article focuses on whether, or to what extent, the relative absence of a progressive civil society or movements can be partially attributed to the institutional nature of the Irish state. Five institutional or state-centred rationales are offered: the populist nature of Irish political parties; patterns of interest group formation; clientalism; corporatism; and st...

The Irish in Asturias: the footprint of the Irish College, Salamanca, 1913–1950
(2012)
Richardson, Regina Whelan
Abstract:
Traces the history of the clerical students and rectors of the Irish College, Salamanca (Colegio Real de Nobles Irlandeses) on their summer vacations on the northern coast of Spain. The article draws chiefly on rectors’ reports to the Irish hierarchy in the Salamanca Archive, held in St. Patrick’s College, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland and on the papers of Alexander McCabe, rector of the College from 1935-49, held in the National Library of Ireland.. A summer house (Casona de Verines) was purchased in the early 1920s and thereafter the holidays were spent in Pendueles, Asturias. This article augments the small body of work that has been published to date on the 20th century history of the Irish College, Salamanca, it documents the Irish presence in Asturias, adding further details to our knowledge of the evacuation of the students on the outbreak of the Spanish civil war. It recounts some of the impressions and experiences of Alexander McCabe as an eye witness to the civil war...

The Relationship between the Irish Sign Language Campaign and the Irish Deaf Community
(2015)
Duggan, Nora Kate
Abstract:
The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between the Irish Sign Language Recognition campaign and the Irish Deaf community. The dissertation reviews the literature theories of Deafhood, social activism and language rights; applying the theories into the analysis of the findings. The purpose of the exploration of this relationship is to understand where the Irish Deaf community stand in terms of their understanding and their involvement in the campaign. The key focus is the social activism within the community – exploring a range of questions from how the campaign developed to how much do the community know and understand the impact in having ISL recognised as Ireland’s third official language. The research process involves the compilation of a range of data from two focus group studies that involve thirteen Irish Deaf individuals. The thesis is laid out in five chapters: introduction; literature review; methodology and methods; findings and analysis and conclusion with t...

The role of Foclóir Gaeilge-Béarla Néill Uí Dhónaill in Irish language lexicography in the twentieth century
(2008)
Mac Amhlaigh, Liam
Abstract:
This paper sets out to chronicle the compilation and usage of the Foclóir Gaeilge- Béarla⎯or Irish-English Dictionary⎯by Niall Ó Dónaill, Tomás de Bhaldraithe and the lexicography team in An Gúm working on behalf of the Department of Education in the Republic of Ireland. As the primary modern dictionary of its time, its effect on the teaching and usage of the Irish language in the last quarter of the twentieth century is profound. This is especially the case in light of the fact that no update or amendment to it has ever been seen fit to be produced. Unlike the forthcoming English-Irish dictionary in motion under the auspices of Foras na Gaeilge-the government body responsible under Irish law for the promotion of the Irish language and Irish language organizations-and Lexicography MasterClass, there is no likelihood of any new Irish-English dictionary being produced in the near future. The evolution of the dictionary began as a development from the publication of the English-Irish D...

Early Irish Lexicography ‒ A Research Survey
(2018)
Griffith, Aaron; Stifter, David; Toner, Gregory
Early Irish Lexicography ‒ A Research Survey
(2018)
Griffith, Aaron; Stifter, David; Toner, Gregory
Abstract:
This article is primarily concerned with lexicographic resources, i.e. glossaries, word-lists, dictionaries, and lexica of various shapes and form, for Early Irish. Early Irish comprises of several distinct stages of the Irish language: Primitive Irish (c. 4th–6th centuries A.D.), almost solely attested in Ogam inscriptions, Early or Archaic Old Irish (c. 7th century), Old Irish (c. 8th–9th centuries), and Middle Irish (c. 10th–12thcenturies), the latter three transmitted through manuscripts. A large grey area exists between lexicographic resources in the strict sense and monographs that treat subsec-tions of the Early Irish lexicon under particular phonological, morphological, or other grammatical perspectives. However, examples of the latter, unless they contain sub-stantial lexicon-like portions, will not be considered here.

International and domestic pressures on Irish foreign policy: an analysis of the UN Security Council term 2001-2

International and domestic pressures on Irish foreign policy: an analysis of the UN Security Council term 2001-2
(2005)
Doyle, John
Abstract:
Recent debate on Irish foreign policy has often been framed by the presumed influence of the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy and the dependence of the Irish economy on Foreign Direct Investment from the US. More broadly, small states are generally assumed to have little significant influence on world events. Empirical research on these issues is difficult in the Irish context given the often guarded nature of Irish foreign policy pronouncements. Ireland’s term on the UN Security Council in 2001 and 2002 offers an opportunity both to examine Irish foreign policy decision-making at the highest international level and to look at the capacity of a small state to have influence. The results of this study suggest that contrary to common perceptions, Irish diplomats on the Council did regularly disagree with the US on foreign-policy decisions and that the influence of EU membership was very limited—primarily because there was often no common European policy on the most controversial ...

Language and occupational status: linguistic elitism in the Irish labour market

Abstract:
This paper was obtained through PEER (Publishing and the Ecology of European Research) http://www.peerproject.eu
This paper, using data from the 2006 Irish Census, provides evidence of the structural advantage of Irish speaking, relative to non-speaking workers in Ireland’s labour market with advantage and disadvantage being defined in terms of occupational outcomes. To the best of our knowledge there has been no systematic investigation of any advantage enjoyed by Irish speakers in Ireland and allegations of the comfortable middle class ambience of the Gaelscoileanna have remained at the level of anecdote. Since linguistic elitism is a feature of many societies and since Irish enjoys the constitutional status of the national and first official language of Ireland, such an investigation was, arguably, overdue. This is then compared to the structural advantage of Irish speaking workers in Northern Ireland and of Welsh speaking workers in Wales. Our conclusion is that after contro...

An archaeology of Irish cinema: Ireland's subaltern, migrant and feminist film cultures (1973-87)
(2003)
Connolly, Maeve
Abstract:
This thesis examines the development of an Irish film avant-garde, from the mid 1970s to the late 1980s. The thesis argues that this period was marked by an historically specific intersection between Irish and international film cultures, which can be traced through contemporary film theory, cultural policy and critical practice. This period witnessed a revitalisation of indigenous production, and new initiatives in Irish arts policy, but many important Irish filmmakers trained or began their careers in London and New York, while others were supported by cultural and political agencies outside the state. The thesis focuses on the work of five filmmakers (Bob Quinn, Joe Comerford, Thaddeus O’Sullivan, Vivienne Dick and Pat Murphy) and on three key areas of intersection between Irish and international film culture, associated with the ‘subaltern’, migration and feminism. Through close readings of specific films, supported by interviews with selected filmmakers, distributors and archiv...

The Irish press 1919-1948: origins and issues
(2006)
Robbins, David
Abstract:
This thesis provides a broad history of the Irish Press during the years 1919-1948. It sets forth how, from 1919 onwards, Republican leader Eamon de Valera became convinced of the need for a newspaper sympathetic to his aims, and how he went about raising funds for the enterprise both in Ireland and the United States. The corporate structure of the Irish Press is also examined, with particular emphasis on the role of the Controlling Director and the influence of the Irish Press American Corporation. The Irish Press was first published in 1931, and the thesis examines its support for Fianna Fail in the period under study. The work also examines the changes in the relationship between the party and the paper as Fianna Fail became more entrenched in government. The role of the first editor of the Irish Press. Frank Gallagher, is considered. The changes in the attitude of the Irish Press to Fianna Fail in the post-Gallagher period are also examined, with emphasis on the findings of the ...

Using a multivariate approach to define Irish metiers in the Irish Sea

Using a multivariate approach to define Irish metiers in the Irish Sea
(2009)
Davie, S.; Lordan, C.
Abstract:
There is an increasing need to take into account a “mixed fisheries” approach in management, assessment and sampling of fish stocks. To do this effectively it is necessary for groups of fishing trips with homogeneous fishing patterns or tactics to be defined into métiers. Presented here is the result of an Irish case study analysis in applying multivariate statistics to declared logbook landings to define Irish fleet métiers operating in the Irish Sea. Established multivariate statistical procedures, a combination of factorial and cluster analysis, were applied to five variables; landing profile, vessel length category, gear, mesh size range and month. The investigation has shown this methodology to be a suitable tool in identifying métiers without prior assumptions and enabled data to be described from a multivariate statistical perspective providing useful and informative results. In total twenty-two métiers were identified and defined from 2003 landings data, and a further 5 grou...

Regions, regionality and regionalization in Irish traditional music: the role of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann

Regions, regionality and regionalization in Irish traditional music: the role of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann
(2013)
Kearney, Daithi
Abstract:
In this paper I examine the influence of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann on the geography of Irish traditional music and, in particular, the impact of the organisation on regions and regional identities within the tradition. Founded in 1951, CCÉ is the largest organisation involved in Irish traditional music and it impinges on many aspects of the study of regionality in Irish traditional music. As a powerful interest group in Irish traditional music, the organization constructs and communicates ideologies, celebrates and empowers individuals, and creates representations. A mapping of the cultural-geographic patterning of its various activities reveals CCE's construction of newly imagined administrative regions and an historical narrative of ‘the way things were’.

The 'half-Irish' Herbert Remmel

The 'half-Irish' Herbert Remmel
(2015)
O'Driscoll, Mervyn
Abstract:
This book chapter examines Herbert Remmel’s childhood experience which juxtaposed Hitler’s Germany and de Valera’s neutral Ireland. Born in 1936 in Cologne he experienced the war from the perspective of a child. As a fortunate nine year old, he escaped the bombed out Rhineland by taking advantage of a humanitarian operation involving the Irish Red Cross and the Save the German Children Society (SGCS). He landed off the mail-boat from Liverpool at Dun Laoghaire in Dublin on 27 July 1946 as a member of the first group of approximately 80 German children arriving under the scheme. Herbert’s experiences with his two Irish foster families instilled in the young German boy a deep and intimate appreciation of Ireland, its society, the Irish sense of place, the people’s traditions, the Irish rural way of life and Irish nationalism. Though only in Ireland for just under three years, the interlude was indelibly imprinted on his being and identity. His experience granted him rare insights into...

The innovation performance of Irish and foreign-owned firms: The roles of R&D and networking

The innovation performance of Irish and foreign-owned firms: The roles of R&D and networking
(2016)
Doran, Justin; O'Leary, Eoin
Abstract:
This paper contributes to the growing evidence that Irish and foreign‐owned firms based in Ireland conduct their innovation activities differently from each other. It tests the Cohen and Levinthal hypothesis, separately for Irish and foreign‐owned firms, that undertaking R&D and collaborating with external networks together enhance the probability of product and process innovation. To control for potential endogeneity of the external networking variables, a two‐step procedure is used with predicted probabilities used as instruments in the estimated production functions. Based on data from the Irish Community Innovation Survey 2006 to 2008, the results suggest that Irish‐owned firms which engage in external networks with public knowledge sources, while simultaneously undertaking R&D, are more likely to innovate than firms which perform these two activities individually. Irish‐owned firms which engage in backward networking for product and forward networking for process innova...

E pluribus unum? Maintaining social cohesion while recognising difference within contemporary Irish primary education
(2009)
O’Sullivan, Carol
Abstract:
This dissertation seeks to explore the manner in which Irish education has responded to recent demographic and cultural change. This will be undertaken through a comprehensive intratheoretical analysis of political philosophy with a view to identifying the difficulties that are commensurate with maintaining social cohesion while recognising difference in a meaningful and constructive manner. This analysis will then be applied to Irish educational thinking in order to locate the philosophical basis of Irish education and to determine its relevance to the cultural difference that is now becoming a defining feature of Irish society. This dissertation is undertaken against the backdrop of an Ireland which still lacks a comprehensive immigration and integration policy and which is increasingly susceptible to market forces and neo-liberal politics. The expected outcomes are that while Irish education aspires towards the achievement of an intercultural society, there are still significant ...

Where phonology meets morphology in the context of rapid language change and universal bilingualism: Irish initial mutations in child language
(2018)
Müller, Nicole; Muckley, Sarah-Ann; Antonijevic-Elliott, Stanislava
Abstract:
As one of the Celtic languages, Irish is among the few languages in the world that employ word initial mutations (IMs) in order to express grammatical functions. IMs express grammatical information by a way of systematic alternation of minimal phonological contrasts, which closely links segmental phonology to grammatical morphology (Irish also employs final consonant palatalization as a grammatical marker, but this will not be the focus of our paper).The overwhelming majority of Irish speakers are bilingual (with English), and virtually all Irish-speaking children grow up with varying degrees of exposure to and use of English in the home. Irish is undergoing rapid language change at present, and the system of IM is affected by this process of shift such that many fluent Irish speakers show inconsistent use of IM in their spoken language.Given inconsistency in the use of a grammatical system in the adult language, the question arises whether it will be possible to identify developmen...

Speaking Back: Queerness, Temporality, and the Irish Voice in America
(2019)
DOYLE, GAVIN
Abstract:
This thesis examines the intersections of Irishness and queerness in the work of five contemporary American writers and cultural figures. The queer Irish voice in America remains almost entirely neglected in Irish and Irish-American scholarship. This thesis provides the first comprehensive exploration of that heretofore obscured representation in order to fill this critical gap. The 1990s introduced explicitly for the first time the complexities of gay, lesbian, and queer Irish identity at America's largest display of cultural ethnic and national belonging: the St Patrick's Day parade. The conflicts between Irish queer groups and the parade organisers in New York and Boston, while emerging from the alleged impossibility of Irish queerness, have, conversely, ensured that an intimate connection between these two identifications endures in the public imaginary. Discussing the work of five writers, namely Alice McDermott, James McCourt, Peggy Shaw, Eileen Myles, and Stephanie ...

The Political Preferences and Value Orientations of Irish Journalists
(2004)
Corcoran, Mary
Abstract:
There is a dearth of sociologically informed literature on Irish journalists. In her seminal paper. Kelly (1983) laid out the factors influencing the production of news in a general context, acknowledging in her analysis the limited range of research on the Irish media. She highlighted the ideological and personal preferences of journalists on the one hand, and their professional values and practices on the other as key determinants of the news agenda. However, to date no systematic study of Irish journalists has addressed these twin concerns. Drawing on data obtained from a national survey of daily news journalists in the Republic of Ireland conducted in the late 1990s, this paper offers some insight into the class position, political orientation and value system ofa key group of 'meaning producers'in Irish society. In particular, the article seeks to provide insight into the professional culture of Irish journalists and their views on the relationship between the messeng...

The Role of Education in Irish Public Service Broadcasting
(2004)
Grummell, Bernie
Abstract:
The media's contribution to the creation ofa healthy public sphere and civil society is the focus of public debate, especially in the light of concerns about the impact on them of the economic and political spheres. The media's ideal contribution to the development of a democratic society has traditionally been framed within the structures of the public service model of broadcasting, where education plays a crucial role. This article traces the evolution of education in Irish broadcasting, exploring the consequences for Irish democracy and civil life. It outlines how education's potential contribution has continually been shaped by the institutional demands of the political and economic systems, including the cultural nationalist ethos of early radio broadcasting, its role in the modernisation of Irish society, and the growth of commercialism and pluralist approaches. These trends had a formative influence on education's role in Irish broadcasting, and consequent...

An Insight into the Impact of Arable Farming on Irish Biodiversity: A Scarcity of Studies Hinders a Rigorous Assessment
(2008)

Abstract:
To help understand and counteract future agronomic challenges to farmland biodiversity, it is essential to know how present farming practices have affected biodiversity on Irish farms. We present an overview of existing research data and conclusions, describing the impact of crop cultivation on biodiversity on Irish arable farms. An extensive literature review clearly indicates that peer-reviewed publications on research conducted in Ireland on this topic are quite scarce: just 21 papers investigating the effect of conventional crop cultivation on Irish biodiversity have been published within the past 30 years. Principally, these studies have concluded that conventional crop cultivation has had an adverse impact on biodiversity on Irish farms, with 15 of the 21 studies demonstrating negative trends for the taxa investigated. Compared to other EU states, the relative dearth of baseline data and absence of monitoring programmes designed to assess the specific impacts of crop cultivati...

Irish Neutrality What are the Costs and Benefits of Ireland’s Policy of Neutrality?
(2004)
Burke, Conor
Abstract:
Irish Neutrality - What are the Costs and Benefits of Ireland’s Policy of Neutrality? Irish Neutrality is a policy that has evolved since the foundation of the State. The exposure to major conflicts since statehood was achieved by Ireland has been relatively limited. Ireland’s policy of neutrality has been essentially a pragmatic policy and in Irish terms successful as a neutral stance has assisted in affirming sovereignty for Ireland as an independent nation. The Irish people have cherished neutrality as a concept. Neutrality has become a symbol of Irish identity and has assisted in keeping Ireland out of war. With the fall of the Berlin Wall, changing World Order, increased European integration, freer movements of populations, new terrorists threats, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the time has come for neutral states to question whether a neutral stance is the most appropriate option to follow in the 21st century. My research explores Irish Neutrality, investigating...

The Valuation Effects of Cross-Listing Abroad for Irish Firms

The Valuation Effects of Cross-Listing Abroad for Irish Firms
(2009)
O'Connor, Thomas G.
Abstract:
The number of Irish firms cross-listed on international exchanges remains low, relative to other countries. However, as a proportion of those firms eligible to list, Irish firms are, relative to others, more likely to list abroad. Surprisingly, Doidge, Karolyi and Stulz (2004) show that in 1997 US exchange-traded Irish firms are worth less than domestic Irish firms, a result at odds with what we might have expected and with the predictions of the legal bonding hypothesis. In this paper, I show that listing abroad, in both London (AIM listing only) and the US (both Level 1 and Level 2), does enhance the value of lrish firms. I find that cross-listing leads to an average 'within-firm' change in the value of Level 2 firms in the region of 19.65 per cent (using market-to-book of assets). As expected, the change in value experienced by Level 1 firms is smaller (14.93 per cent). Like Doidge, Karolyi and Stulz (2009), 1 do not find that an ordinary listing in London enhances valu...

The Government's Executions Policy During the Irish Civil War 1922 -1923
(2010)
Murphy, Breen Timothy
Abstract:
This thesis examines the executions policy undertaken by the pro-treatyite Provisional/Free State Government during the Irish Civil War (1922–23). Following the Irish War of Independence (1919–21) and subsequent Anglo-Irish Treaty Ireland‘s previously united nationalist movement fractured into opposing factions. The ensuing Civil War, fought between the Government and the anti-treatyite militants, known as the Irregulars, played an integral role in the development of the modern Irish State. Remarkably, this conflict has been marginalised in Irish revolutionary historiography. Similarly, the significance of the Government‘s official executions policy during the conflict has been further neglected and consigned to a footnote in existing works on the Civil War. Yet the execution of eighty-one fellow Irishmen and former comrades by the first independent Irish Government became one of the defining characteristics of the War. The proposition which underpins this study is that this executi...

Mathematisation and Irish students: The ability of Irish second-level students to transfer mathematics from the classroom to solve authentic, real life problems.

Lynch, Peggy Ellen
Abstract:
This research considers the mathematical performance of Irish second-level students. The author considers the ability of Irish students to utilise the mathematics learned in a classroom situation to solve authentic, real-life problems. It is a mixed methods study involving testing, structured observations and semi-structured interviews. The research participants are Irish second-year, second-level mathematics students and grade 8 students from a school in the state of Massachusetts (both groups share a mean age of 13.5 years). The students from Massachusetts were involved solely at the testing stage of the data collection process in order to consider Irish performance with regard to mathematical performance from students in a different education system. The observed mathematics lessons provide a valuable insight into the teaching and learning practices used at second-level. The quantitative analysis of the classroom observations highlight patterns and learning theories used in the m...
