The New Irish Question: Citizenship, Motherhood and the Politics of Life Itself
(2009)
Maguire, Mark; Cassidy, Tanya
The New Irish Question: Citizenship, Motherhood and the Politics of Life Itself
(2009)
Maguire, Mark; Cassidy, Tanya
Abstract:
In 2004, voters in the Republic of Ireland supported a constitutional amendment removing the automatic right to Irish citizenship by birth in favor of granting citizenship through a combination of 'blood' and residence rights. The referendum attracted enormous public attention, especially to the perceived attempt to restrict citizenship claims arising from asylum seekers with Irish hom children. Significant scholarly attention has also been paid to the role of the Irish state, and the relationship between the state and 'race'. This article critically reviews this literature and goes beyond it in several ways: first, we re-open discussion of Irish citizenship through a critical examination of its legal underpinnings; second, we trace over the public debates in finer detail; and, third, we show the ways in which Irish citizenship is being reconfigured by broader international forces.

Judicial review under the Irish Constitution: More American than Commonwealth

Judicial review under the Irish Constitution: More American than Commonwealth
(2008)
Ó Tuama, Séamus
Abstract:
Published Version
The Irish legal system emerged from the British system. Yet the Irish constitution diverges from the Commonwealth model and more closely resembles the American constitution in both substance and application. This means that while the Irish parliamentary system is very much based on the Westminster model, the legal system, while remaining within the Common Law family, has important distinctions. One of the key areas of divergence from the Commonwealth model is in judicial review. This has important ramifications for the recognition and elaboration of human rights under the constitution. This article explores some of the historical reasons for the shift from the Commonwealth model and the nature and consequence of some of those differences. It also contrasts certain aspects of the Irish judicial review process with those pertaining in the United States; in particular it highlights some anti-democratic tendencies in the Irish system.

A Leage of Their Own: Landmark Supreme Court Judgement Clears Irish league Credit Unions of Abuse of Dominance
(2008)
Massey, Patrick
Abstract:
In a unanimous judgment handed down on 8th May 2007, the Irish Supreme Court upheld an appeal by the Irish League of Credit Unions (ILCU) against a High Court judgment that ILCU had abused a dominant position. The Irish Competition Authority had alleged that ILCU had abused its dominant position in the market for savings protection services (SPS) by limiting access to SPS services to its own members. The Authority claimed that credit unions wishing to obtain SPS services were required to also purchase credit union representation services from ILCU and that such tying amounted to an abuse of dominance by ILCU. This was the first abuse of dominance case brought by the Irish Competition Authority to go to a full hearing, the first to be appealed to the Supreme Court and the first Irish case under EC Regulation 1/2003. The case raised a number of interesting economic issues, which are of interest in the context of the debate on the need for a more economics based approach to Article 82....

Young Irish Adults in Civil Society: Volunteering, Reflexive Identity Work and Social Capital
(2008)
Weller, Geoffrey Robert, (Thesis)
Young Irish Adults in Civil Society: Volunteering, Reflexive Identity Work and Social Capital
(2008)
Weller, Geoffrey Robert, (Thesis)
Abstract:
<p>This thesis seeks to explain how young Irish adults are capable of achieving identities as episodic volunteers. Participation in civil society in Ireland is changing, with new forms of volunteering emerging (Donoghue et al 2006). Issues of identity and identity construction appear to be symptomatic of these changes (Beck and Beck-Gernsheim 2002). This research focuses upon young Irish adults identity work as they discursively construct their episodic volunteering (Macduff 2005). The research uses a discourse analysis lens (Wetherell 1998; Wetherell and Edley 1998, 1999; Edley and Wetherell 1995, 1996, 1997, 1999; Edley 2001). It is based upon 17 intensive interviews with young Irish adults, aged between 21 and 26, who volunteered for an Irish civil society organisation. The research also draws upon social capital theory. The analysis of the interview data has resulted in the emergence of eight conventional notions of the volunteer engagement, used by the young Irish adults ...

The struggle for control of the Irish mint, 1460-c. 1506

The struggle for control of the Irish mint, 1460-c. 1506
(1978)
Ellis, Steven G.
Abstract:
Correlation of archaeological evidence with that from administrative records provides a comparatively large body of information about the operation of the Irish mint under the Yorkists and Henry VII. This period was one in which the king's control over his Irish lordship was particularly slack and when, in contrast with previous policy, a distinctive coinage was minted especially for the lordship to a lower standard than that in England. The mint's survival depended on the maintenance of a difficult balance between the economic interests of the colonists and the king's fear that lack of proper control might undermine confidence generally in the royal mint or, worse, constitute a political risk. The relations between the king and his Irish government with regard to this one aspect of administration thus provide a useful guide to Anglo-Irish relations more generally in the late medieval period.

Analysing the development of bipartisanship in the Dáil : the interaction of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil party politics on the Irish government policy on Northern Ireland
(2009)
McDermott, Susan
Abstract:
This paper analyses the relationship between the two main parties in the Irish party system when dealing with the Northern Ireland question. Taking the Sunningdale Communiqué as a starting point, the paper argues that while aspirations for bipartisanship in the Dáil on this issue existed within the leadership of both parties at various times during the conflict, that the difference in approach and fundamental difference in ideology of party leaders meant that bipartisanship was not achieved until consensus on key issues was reached in the mid-1990s. This paper argues that analysing whether bipartisanship existed at various points in the conflict relates to the understanding of the role of the Irish party politics on the British-Irish relationship and the development of the peace process. This paper was written as part of the Breaking the patterns of conflict project being undertaken in the Institute for British-Irish Studies, UCD. The study of Irish party politics and the role of bi...

The Irish builder and engineer catalogue
(2010)
Collins, Niamh
Abstract:
This paper reports on the Irish Builder and Engineer research project which was conducted as part of the UCD Irish Virtual Research Library and Archive (IVRLA) series of demonstrator research projects. The remit of these projects was to provide digital research resources and to show how digital repositories could not only provide access to archival research materials but could also present material in new ways and suggest themes for further research. The Irish Builder and Engineer, which commenced publication in 1859 and survived under various titles until 1979, is a key resource in understanding the development of the Irish building and engineering trades. This project, which is the first phase of a long-term project, created a complete contents catalogue of the journal from 1890 to 1914, thus facilitating academic investigation into the history of engineering, construction and sanitary science in Ireland as well as into the history and content of The Irish Builder and Engineer its...

Creativity and Structure in Irish Architectural Practices: an Exploration of the Symbiotic Relationship between Structure and Creativity in Irish Architectural Practices with International Offices
(2009)
Rooney, Aine
Abstract:
<p>This enquiry is concerned with exploring creativity within Irish architectural practices with overseas offices. Specifically, the thesis seeks to determine how strategic choices in relation to structure can deliver competitive advantage through increased organisational creativity. In gathering data and reviewing the findings from the research, the study ultimately seeks to develop recommendations for best practice guidelines for optimal organisational structure for Irish architectural practices which supports creativity. In doing so it seeks to solve a real world problem, significantly contributing to professional practice in the area. The current status of the sector in Ireland is presented in order to outline the context in which Irish architectural practices are operating. The relevance and value of structure and strategy within an organisation is explored. The strategic choices companies make in order to secure competitive advantage and how they align their organisation...

Unemployment persistence in a small open labour market : the Irish case
(1998)
Walsh, Brendan M.
Abstract:
This paper reviews previous research on Irish unemployment. It examines the reasons for the persistence of high unemployment and the relevance of the concept of a time-varying rate of "equilibrium" unemployment in a small and open labour market. The links between Irish and British unemployment, and the effects of economic growth on Irish unemployment, are explored. The difficulty of establishing links between Irish labour market conditions and wage price inflation is documented. The paper concludes with a discussion of contribution of centralised wage bargaining to the recent impressive performance of the Irish labour market.

Modelling credit in the Irish mortgage market
(2009)
Addison-Smyth, Diarmaid; McQuinn, Kieran; O'Reilly, Gerard
Abstract:
The sharp decline in the performance of international property markets has been central to the financial distress experienced globally. The Irish housing market experienced particularly strong rates of price increases and heightened activity levels by OECD standards. One reason cited for such large price increases has been the significant degree of financial liberalisation experienced by Irish credit institutions. The culmination of much of this liberalisation resulted in large increases in the availability of mortgage credit. In this paper we apply a recently developed model of mortgage credit and examine the implications for Irish house prices of changes in lending patterns. Our results suggest that post 2003, a significant amount of the increase in Irish prices was determined by innovative developments in international finance, which enabled Irish institutions, in particular, to secure alternative sources of lending funds.

Abstract:
Gifted Techspectations is the first of a series of reports based on research by the DCU Leadership, Innovation and Knowledge Research Centre (LInK) based in DCU Business School. With its roots in an Irish business school, it is no surprise that LInK’s mission is to strengthen the competitiveness, productivity, innovation and entrepreneurial capacity of the Irish economy. Ireland’s next generation transformation will be enabled by information and communication technologies (ICT) and digital participation by members of Irish society. As a university research centre we have an important role to play in supporting education, industry and government to accelerate this transformation. With support from DCU Business School, Enterprise Ireland’s Innovation Voucher Programme, DCU’s Learning Innovation Unit, Cambridge University Press and the Nominet Foundation amongst others, LInK has undertaken a wide variety of activities to accelerate digital participation. These include applied research...

Buttering up the British: Irish Exports and the Tourist Gaze
(2012)
Bolger, Mary Ann
Abstract:
<p>This paper argues that the advertising of Irish exports in the 1960s provided for their consumers a form of ‘tourism without travel’. (1) This concept is borrowed from Mark McGovern, who uses it to describe the experience of the consumer of the ‘Irish pub experience’ in his article ‘”The cracked pint glass of the servant”: the Irish pub, Irish identity and the tourist eye’ in Michael Cronin and Barbara O’Connor (eds) Irish tourism: image, culture, and identity. Clevedon; Buffalo, N.Y.: Channel View Publications, 2003 In particular, Kerrygold butter acted as an especially authentic souvenir of Ireland because it was, as the ads still claim today, ‘made of Ireland’.</p>

Geography in Ireland in transition
(2004)
Kitchin, Rob
Abstract:
In this short commentary I want to reflect on Irish Geography in the new millennium, and what I perceive to have been a major transition in the state and development of the discipline since 2000. I will be the first to admit that it is a convenient coincidence that the start of the story I want to tell begins at the point when the new millennium dawned, and the genesis of the tale certainly has it origins in the years beforehand. That said, I do think the date has significance as a rough temporal marker of the beginnings of a remarkable set of factors that I believe has transformed, and continues to transform, Irish Geography. I am mindful that what follows is a situated narrative, and I am sure that others will view differently the development of Irish Geography over the last five years. It would therefore be interesting to compare and contrast personal views of Irish geography and I would welcome dialogue on the health of the discipline on the island of Ireland. Such dialogue, I b...

Adding life to your years: Transformative learning for older people at the Irish Museum of Modern Art.
(2000)
Fleming, Dr Ted
Abstract:
Life expectancy has increased by 30 years during the past century. By 2150 the percentage of the worldâs population over 65 will be 30%, up from 7% at present. A high percentage of older people are actively involved in adult education (Lamdin and Fugate, 1997, p. 85). During the United Nations International Year of Older Persons (1999) the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA), with EU SOCRATES funding, undertook a study of its education work with members of St. Michael's Parish Active Retirement Association, a group of older local residents. The aim of the research was to identify the learning outcomes of the programme and how that learning was facilitated. The Irish Museum of Modern Art is housed in the Royal Hospital, Dublin, founded in 1684 by the Viceroy to Charles II as a home for retired soldiers. It continued in that role for almost 250 years. The Irish Government restored the building and it was re-opened as the Irish Museum of Modern Art in 1991.

'Changing a Mindset' 1: From Recognition of Qualifcations Towards Embedding Ethnic Reflexivity and Translational Positionality
(2007)
Fagan, G. Honor
Abstract:
This article addresses the need for embedding a politics of diversity in the Irish third level educational system. This involves a move beyond the simple recognition and transfer of qualification agenda already addressed in state policy. It engages in a reflexive re-reading of dialogues with 'translocating' people who were attempting to access Irish third level institutions or attempting to transfer their qualifications to the Irish labour market. On the basis of this reading it addresses 'ethnic reflexivity' (the critique and reflection on our ethnic placement in the world in terms of the power it bestows on us) and 'translational positionality' (the positionality of the translocator engaged in the translation of knowledges and actions) in Irish third level accreditation, knowledge production and work practices.

`It was a sorry story … now we can think in terms of planning’: The OECD Dimension of Irish Education & Science Policy Innovation, 1958-68 (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 31
(2007)
Murray, Peter
Abstract:
Unsuccessful domestic attempts to raise the profile of science and technology in Irish policy debate can be traced back to the end of the 1940s. By the late 1950s a combination of Soviet space race achievement and Irish development strategy shift had created a more receptive environment internationally and nationally. Interaction with the Office for Scientific and Technical Personnel (OSTP) of the Organisation for European Economic Cooperation (OEEC) ended the isolation of the Irish Department of Education and the Second Programme for Economic Expansion did what OEEC experts had been urging Irish policymakers to do by integrating education into economic planning. Both in the education field and that of science and technology the bridge between a general commitment to planning and a concrete programme of action was supplied by research studies. These studies were initiated in the early 1960s by the successor body to OEEC, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OEC...

Abstract:
<p>Supply chain management is one of the most significant strategic challenges currently facing the Irish grocery sector. The UK grocery market with its emphasis on composite deliveries via regional distribution centres is extremely sophisticated; the Irish grocery sector, however, is in the embryonic stage of implementing central distribution. The potential to develop innovative supply chain systems is mediated by both national logistic-related variables and company characteristics. In addition to competitor activity and market forces, drivers and inhibitors such as economic growth, consumer preferences, the regulatory environment and physical and technological infrastructure influence the evolution of supply chain systems. This paper presents a profile of the Irish grocery market and a framework within which to analyse the facilitators and inhibitors of supply chain innovation based on international trends mediated by national characteristics.</p>

Music transcription within Irish traditional music
(2006)
Gainza, Mikel, (Thesis)
Abstract:
<p>Transcribing Irish traditional music is an open-field of research. The oral transmission of the music between generations explains the lack of transcription until recent times. The music can be played solo, which permits the player to exploit the variety of ornamentation types, in unison, and also with the accompaniment of a harmonic instrument. Different signal processing applications for transcribing Irish traditional music are presented in this thesis, including onset, ornamentation and pitch detection. An onset detection system which focuses on the characteristics of the tin whistle within Irish traditional music is first presented. The tin whistle is a good example of the features of Irish traditional music, and the detection of its onset encounters all the problems associated with onset detection identified in the literature review. An extension of this method is also implemented in an effort to detect the most common types of ornamentation, which has not been attempt...

Abstract:
peer-reviewed
The recent completion of the International HapMap Project has rapidly advanced our understanding of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in the human genome. Today, tagging SNPs (tSNPs) can be quickly and easily selected and consequently HapMap data are regularly applied to both small- and large-scale genetic mapping studies. However, to correctly interpret the application of HapMap-derived tSNPs in a genetic mapping study, an understanding of how well HapMap data represents LD in the study population is critical. The Irish population had not previously been characterised in this way. Here, we do so using a set of 4424 SNPs selected from 279 candidate genes for epilepsy genotyped across 1118 healthy individuals from the Irish, British, Finnish and Australian populations. By considering the Irish population alongside surrounding European populations, our results confirm that the HapMap European-derived population accurately estimates patterning of LD in European descent popu...

Is Irish innovation policy working? evidence from Irish technology businesses
(2008)
Jordan, D.; O'Leary, Eoin
Abstract:
In the last decade Irish innovation policy has been focused on Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). This paper explores the effects of HEIs, in the context of interaction with other interaction agents, on the innovation output of Irish high-technology businesses. Based on a survey of 184 businesses in the Chemical and Pharmaceutical, Information and Communications Technology and Engineering and Electronic Devices sectors, the paper estimates the importance of in-house R&D activity and external interaction with HEIs, support agencies and other businesses for product and process innovation. A key finding is that the greater the frequency of direct interaction with HEIs the lower the probability of both product and process innovation in these businesses. There is some evidence of a positive indirect HEI effect, through complementarities of interactions with suppliers and support agencies. However, while external interaction is important for innovation output, there is little evide...

Irish Private Bill Legislation: a tribunal
(1899)
Samuels, Arthur W.
Abstract:
The demands which the Irish Local Government Bill made upon the time of Parliament last session rendered it impossible to expect that the Government could introduce the bill for the reform of Irish Private Bill Legislation, which was mentioned in the Queen's Speech for the year 1897. This reform has been advocated by the Irish Press of all politics, and has been constantly and urgently demanded for now nearly half a century by the Irish public. It is one of the most crying of our needs. The industrial progress of Ireland has been blasted by the present system. Municipal improvement has been retarded and prevented. Thousands and thousands of pounds that might have been expended on sanitation, or the beautifying and improving of cities and towns, have been wasted by this deplorable and preventible expenditure.

Exchange rate policy in a small open economy: an examination of Irish experience

Exchange rate policy in a small open economy: an examination of Irish experience
(1988)
Massey, Patrick
Abstract:
The paper looks at Irish exchange rate policy since 1979 when the Irish Pound joined the EMS. The paper argues that a fixed exchange rate link is the optimal approach for an economy such as Ireland. As the bulk of Irish foreign trade is with non EMS member countries some questions arise as to the appropriateness of the target chosen. There have been significant shifts in the pattern of trade and in the structure of Irish industry since EMS entry. It was not possible to establish that these were a direct consequence of the exchange rate policy pursued given the nature of the data available. It appears that EMS membership may not have been responsible for the drop in the inflation rate which has frequently been attributed to membership and was a primary consideration behind the decision to join. Despite its limitations it is not clear that a superior exchange rate target is available
