Parental Barriers, Enablers and Approaches to Communicating About Sexuality and Relationships with Their Children with Intellectual Disability and Autism Spectrum Disorder
Children and young people with intellectual disability and Autism Spectrum Disorder can rely more on parents for relationship and sexuality information and support than children without these diagnoses. This scoping review aimed to identify the barriers and enablers to parental communication on relationships and sexuality for young people with intellectual disability and Autism Spectrum Disorder and to identify approaches that may improve communi…
Ethics in the Grey
This article examines the ethical and methodological tensions of militant research in forced displacement studies, focusing on how scholarly work navigates complicity, public engagement, and institutional constraint. Drawing on research and creative collaborations in Northern Ireland, Turkey, Ireland, and Australia, it explores how militancy is shaped unevenly across political and institutional contexts, and how it is mediated through policy work…
Improvising kinship
This article explores how Aboriginal families in Australia regenerate kinship in the aftermath of state-orchestrated child removals. Moving beyond the limits of reparation and the state’s desire for narrative closure, it theorizes regeneration as an improvisational and relational labour – one that unfolds through refusal, persistence, and the reconfiguration of time. Drawing on ethnographic accounts and intergenerational testimony, the article sh…
Digital futures and current frictions
Digital childhood today unfolds within a technocrisis: a condition in which pervasive digital infrastructures and algorithmic logics outpace the ethical, institutional, and social frameworks needed to govern them. Through a composite case study of an Irish primary school, in this article we examine the frictions that emerge as communities respond to the saturation of childhood by smartphone technologies. We argue that the governance of digital ch…

Voice as Constellation
This article conceptualises voice as a constellation, examining how objects, images, and sounds (or their absence) speak to the lived experiences of displacement. Drawing from a British Academy-funded project with a Syrian artist collective and a women-led social entrepreneurship initiative in Istanbul, we explore the affective assemblages of loss, belonging, and forced displacement through an ethnographic mode of listening. Bringing together a c…
Forum
Decolonising refugee integration paradigms
Forum
There is a place on the southwest edge of Ireland, where stone and sea touch in a constant ebb and flow of memory, history and landscape. Dingle, or An Daingean as it is in the local Irish language. A name that evokes myth and magic, conjuring not only the topography of its windswept cliffs and quiet, stony fields but also the sense of something larger - a pulse, a draw, something that carries you in

The Community, the Workplace, and Public Health Measures
Increasing evidence of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare workers’ mental health and wellbeing has prompted concerns about the longer-term impacts on healthcare delivery and health workforce sustainability. For rural health services and communities, the pandemic has compounded existing challenges including workforce shortages, potentially leading to further health inequalities. This qualitative interview study aimed to explore fac…
‘Devious silence’
In the past few years, and especially since the start of the ‘refugee crisis’, a number of research, NGO, and policy initiatives have channelled resources to representing refugees through artistic endeavours. The underlying assumption in such projects is that art offers refugees a significant avenue to tell their story and acquire a ‘voice’ that is otherwise restricted in contexts of limited rights. In this article we aim to complicate some of th…
What Dreams May Come
What dreams may come is a piece of ethnofiction that tells the story of a young girl and her grandmother, displaced by the climate crisis and conflict. The story centres on the strong, abiding relationship between the girl and her grandmother. Their relationship is the anchor point for their survival in the new unhappy world that they find themselves in. As an anthropologist of displacement, this short story is an attempt to tell the story of cli…

Repealing Ireland's Eighth Amendment
In 2018, the Irish public voted to repeal the Eighth Amendment to the Irish Constitution, which since 1983 banned abortion in the country. While this was a watershed moment in Irish history, it was not unconnected to wider discussions now taking place around the world concerning gender, reproductive rights, the future of religion, Church–State relationships, democracy and social movements. With this Forum, we want to prompt some anthropological i…
Learning through Practice
The rising incidence of loneliness and social isolation, especially among older people has increasingly been identified in research, practice and policy developments. These issues have become key concerns for public health and social care agendas. Although social isolation and loneliness are often conflated, they are not significantly correlated. The effects of loneliness and social isolation on physical, mental and emotional wellbeing are well d…
Most Humanistic, Most Scientific
The suggestion that ‘Anthropology is the most humanistic of the sciences and the most scientific of the humanities’ is generally attributed to the renowned American cultural anthropologist Alfred Kroeber. The integrated BSc Anthropology degree was developed in 2010 by Professors Ann Maclarnon and Garry Marvin, primarily as a response to the existing combined honours degrees in Social Anthropology and Biological Anthropology taught on different ca…
The Emerald Curtain
The whisperings of ghosts
This article examines the telling of ghost stories of Indigenous Australians who were removed from their families during Australia's assimilation era. Known as the Stolen Generations, this group of people were subjected to institutionalisation, adoption, and forced removals from their families, communities and Aboriginal country. In many of my ethnographic encounters with Stolen Generations, I was steadily drawn into their world of ghosts and hau…

Archives of Sorrow
We primarily see the archive as a storehouse of memory and fact, as the place from whence history issues forth. However, the archive is much more than this; it is a site of memory and a place of trauma and pain. It is a place of sorrow and loss for many, where unpacified ghosts with unfinished business await, yielding stories and letters different from expectation, a site where loss is localized and realized. It is also a space of confrontation, …
Accessibility and equity of health and social care services
There is a paucity of information regarding the extent and nature of caring provided by minority ethnic communities. The proportion of older people from these communities will dramatically increase in the next 20 years, which will be accompanied by increasing health and social care needs and an increased demand for carers. A qualitative, exploratory study was conducted to identify the health and social care needs of informal carers, who were cari…

Ontological (in)Security and African Pentecostalism in Ireland
The last number of years has seen the mushrooming of African Pentecostal churches, especially Prosperity Gospel churches, in the post-recession industrial landscapes of Ireland. This article aims to explore the growth of African Pentecostalism in Ireland from both the perspective of embodied and affective religious experience and the conditions for the possibility of those religious experiences. This article is based on several years of ethnograp…

Austerity Ireland, the New Thrift Culture and Sustainable Consumption
In this article, I discuss whether austerity measures have an impact on individual consumers' orientations towards sustainability. Through an ethnographic examination of second-hand markets, in particular flea markets and second-hand baby goods markets, I examine whether economic crisis has changed people's consumption habits in Irish society. While the study of sustainability has a long, interdisciplinary history, little is known about the relat…
Health benefits for health and social care clients attending an Integrated Health and Social Care day unit (IHSCDU)
It is thought that integrating health and social care provision can improve services, yet few evaluations of integrated health and social care initiatives have focused on changes in clinical outcomes and used comparator groups. The aim of this pilot study was to identify whether attendance at an integrated health and social care day unit (IHSCDU) affected selected outcomes of functional mobility, number of prescribed medications, and physical and…
In dreams begin responsibilities
Le 26 mai 1997, la Commission australienne pour les droits de l'Homme et l'égalité des chances (HREOC) a déposé l'un des rapports les plus choquants et douloureux que l'Australie ait jamais vu. Le rapport "Bringing Them Home" (Wilson et Dodson, 1997) est le résultat de mois de consultations à travers le continent austral. Il démontre qu'entre 1910 et les années 1970, entre un dixième et un tiers des enfants aborigènes ont été séparés de force de …

Employee Experiences of Effort, Reward and Change
This qualitative study explored the experiences of employees exposed to extensive change within a regionally-based, state-owned corporation in relation to the Effort–Reward Imbalance at Work (ERI) model, a major theory for explaining organisational characteristics and employee health and wellbeing. With its focus on status control, the ERI model is particularly relevant for global economies characterised by rapid change, reduced job security, inc…

A case study approach was used to examine the potential knowledge-transforming role of writing with 27, Year 12 chemistry students’. The study was prompted by changes to external chemistry examinations that required students to write connected discourse, and supported by the chemistry teacher's belief in the instructional value of writing-to-learn. The teacher modeled exemplars of laboratory reports, scaffold students in the use of a Laboratory R…
