Globalised Ireland, or, contemporary transformations of national identity?
This chapter addresses the complex articulation between the cultural and the economic processes in the discursive construction of Ireland in the era of globalisation. It examines the problematic 'placing' of Ireland in the world. The chapter then traces its constant (re)invention from a cultural political economy approach. Observer Fintan O'Toole notes that 'US culture is itself in part an Irish invention' and that 'Irish culture is inconceivable…

Measuring horizontal governance
This article examines the use of public consultation by the Northern Ireland central government between the years of 2000 and 2004. Key findings suggest a general enthusiasm for its use by government and citizens, despite the identification of challenges including lack of resources as well as ‘consultation fatigue’. In addition, divergences exist between the aims and expectations of administrators and those of citizens and the community and volun…
Waste management and its contestation in the Republic of Ireland
I'll tell you what I see here, Sims. The scenery of the future. Eventually the only scenery left. The more toxic the waste, the greater the effort and expense a tourist will be willing to tolerate in order to visit the site. Only I don't think you ought to be isolating these sites. Isolate the toxic sites, okay. This makes it grander, more ominous and magical. But basic household waste ought to be placed in the cities that produce it. Bring garba…
Sociological Reflections on Governing Waste
The waste management issue in Ireland reached crisis proportions in the late 1990s. Reflecting on an all-Ireland empirical study of waste, this article develops a broader governance perspective and takes up the challenge of contributing to the sociology of waste. It situates waste in a ‘multiscalar’ perspective, viewing waste as a result of a complex global, national, local, and individual set of processes. It examines the dynamics involved in cr…
Globalization and Culture
Instead of asking how globalization can help us understand Ireland today, this article starts from the premise that Ireland may be useful for an understanding of globalization.Always at a crossroads culturally and through its huge migration overseas, contemporary Ireland is seen as the epitome of a globalization success story.The article examines the constant (relcreation of Irish identity and its complex (re)constitution in the era of globalizat…

Globalization, Identity and ‘Ireland’
The recent upsurge of interest in the so-called 'Celtic Tiger' has produced some reflection on the greatly increased cultural confidence in the Ireland of the 1990s. There seems to be an implicit connection drawn between increased economic performance and greater cultural self-confidence. While this thesis is on the surface plausible, this chapter prefers to address the culture of the Celtic Tiger from the perspective of globalization. This chapt…
