A critical analysis of the Australian public consultation on childhood vaccine mandate introduction
Several countries have revised their policies to make vaccine refusal more difficult. The role of the public in this process has seldom been examined. We analysed the public consultation process for the Australian government’s 2016 ‘No Jab No Pay’ mandatory childhood vaccination policy to better understand who participated, their arguments, and how their contributions were incorporated into the legislative process. Publicly available submissions …
Framing a Feminist Abortion
With reproductive health and rights actively under attack, it is critical to support researcher and activist communities in pushing beyond basic access. In this article we propose a framework for a “feminist abortion,” which, rather than positioning medico-legal framings as the sole or foremost consideration, sets out aspirations for a model of abortion care that centers the pregnant person and their needs and attends to the power structures thro…
Theatre and Politics in Post-Conflict Northern Ireland
Colliding ideas
This paper presents a case study of a pilot interdisciplinary collaboration between digital technology law scholars and academic creative practitioners leading to the public art exhibition User Content? in Belfast in the autumn of 2024. Called LawTech Collider to encapsulate the premise that communication across disciplinary boundaries is often unpredictable, this interdisciplinary collaboration was conceptualised as a collision of ideas aimed at…
Women’s experiences of needing abortion care whilst incarcerated
All in the mix
This paper offers a look at how neighbourhood aesthetics, public art, and housing conditions interact to shape urban transformation. The primary aim of the study is to investigate whether artwashing is a feature of gentrification in Salt River, a historic neighbourhood near Cape Town’s central business district. In order to achieve the aim, the following objectives were set: to conceptualise artwashing and gentrification; to conduct an aesthetic …
Gender, nation and reproduction in the afterward of repeal and decriminalisation
Until 2019, abortion was illegal, with little exception, on both parts of the island of Ireland with the laws dating from the Offences Against the Person Act (1861) , a vestige of British colonial law. However, in each country, very different approaches changed the law. In the Republic of Ireland, the process involved a Citizens Assembly, a government committee and a referendum of all citizens. In Northern Ireland, as the Northern Ireland Assembl…
All we want is, free, safe, legal, local abortion access for everyone who needs it
The decriminalisation of abortion in Northern Ireland in 2019 was politically complex. This paper presents an overview from my perspective as the co-convenor of Alliance for Choice (AfC), the primary abortion activist group in the North, focusing on the socio-political background, then analysis via key themes. It considers abortion law in Northern Ireland as British colonialism in Ireland; it then follows the recent political crisis in the Britis…
Transformative reproductive futures in Northern Ireland
A foundation of rights-based solidarity has fostered an environment of cooperation between LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer) rights and reproductive justice in Northern Ireland (NI) following the introduction of equal marriage and the decriminalization of abortion in 2019. This article provides a grounded look at this reproductive justice organizing in NI as an example of transformative organizing for reproductive futures. Th…
Competing framings of abortion in the Northern Ireland Assembly and Westminster
Abortion was decriminalised in Northern Ireland in October 2019. This historic change was introduced by the UK Parliament following lengthy activist campaigns, national and international inquiries, and regional and national court cases. This paper focuses on two legislatures, the Northern Ireland Assembly, and the UK Parliament, examining the role played by each in how decriminalisation was achieved. Tracing efforts dating back to the introductio…
Activism is not a one-lane highway”
In 2019, abortion was decriminalised in Northern Ireland (NI) after decades of campaigning against the almost-total ban. Abortion activists in NI used multiple tools for change, utilising a feminist law-making strategy that also encompassed ‘cheeky’ witnessing [Fletcher, R. (2020). Cheeky witnessing. Feminist Review, 124(1), 124–141. https://doi.org/10.1177/0141778919896342] and movement-building alongside mutual-aid approaches to care. This pape…
Marie de France
This essay focuses on the writer today known as ߢMarie de Franceߣ, who is among the earliest named women authors in French and England. Yet, we cannot be certain the same author composed all of the Anglo-Norman French works conventionally ascribed to her. Campbell asks what it might it mean to see ߢMarieߣ less as an exceptional female author and more as an example of a multilingual culture of womenߣs writing and translation. A critical focus on M…
Decriminalizing Abortion in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland stands out as having enacted historical positive change in abortion law, from an almost complete ban in the 20th century to the decriminalization achieved in 2019. This book documents and analyzes how this historical change was achieved. Each chapter is written by those directly involved in the long-fought battle to change abortion law — including those with personal experience of seeking abortions, activists, academics, legal ex…
Decriminalizing Abortion in Northern Ireland
Abortion remains one of the most politicized issues globally and whilst some countries such as the USA continue to experience restrictions to access to abortion, Northern Ireland stands out as having enacted historical positive change in abortion law, from an almost complete ban throughout the Twentieth Century to decriminalization achieved in 2019. This book documents and analyzes how this historical change was achieved. This, the second of two …
Dissociated Effects of Age and Recent Troubling Experiences on Nightmares, Threats and Negative Emotions in Dreams
Several studies have highlighted associations between adverse life events and the dysphoric character of dream experiences. This degree of continuity between waking-life and dream content seems partly attributed to the emotional and personal attachment linked to the incorporated waking experiences. Numerous changes in the processing of emotion-related stimuli are also reported across different human developmental stages. Therefore, we were intere…
After a Cedaw Optional Protocol Inquiry into abortion law
Liberalisation of abortion laws are often presented in public and academic discourse as the end of a struggle. Northern Ireland may be showcased as a success story with decriminalization of abortion happening in 2019, after an inquiry by the Committee for the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) found grave and systemic breaches of women’s rights and subsequent intervention from the Westminster Parliament changed the law. However, …

Translating Gender in Thirteenth-Century French Cross-Dressing Narratives
Translation studies have in recent times considered how translation is not just a matter of linguistic transfer between texts but is also linked to the processes of comprehending, re-presenting, and transforming that constitute individual subjectivity. This article considers how textual modes of translation connect with translation’s role in subject formation in medieval texts, focusing on two narratives about female cross-dressing, the Vie de Sa…
South Koreas New Nationalism
Why have traditional views of national identity in South Korea—views that for years drove a demand for reunification—been challenged so dramatically in recent years? What explains the growing ambivalence and even antagonism of South Korean young people toward unification with North Korea? Emma Campbell addresses these related puzzles, exploring the emergence of a new kind of nationalism in South Korea and considering what this development means f…
The Library in Twelfth- and Thirteenth-Century French Literature
The allusion to a real or imaginary source is a commonplace in medieval literature; however, some writers take this reference to sources a stage further and speak about the discovery of a work in a library or book collection, occasionally evoking particular place names or locations. If the library's depiction in such instances elaborates upon a common motif, it also raises the issue of the imaginative work that this elaboration might perform, inv…
The end of ethnic nationalism? Changing conceptions of national identity and belonging among youngSouthKoreans
Historically inSouthKorea, ideas of nation and nationalism have been based upon the ethnic and cultural homogeneity of allKorean people. More recently, there has been an evolution inSouthKorean nationalism that is based on strikingly different notions particularly among young people. This paper argues that a newSouthKorean nationalism is emerging and that it has, whatIterm, globalised cultural characteristics. These characteristics challenge the …
"Fieldwork" North Korea

Political Animals
Bisclavret and Yonec — two lais by Marie de France — feature instances of human/animal metamorphosis that are linked to their interrogation of what constitutes humanity and courtliness. Drawing on Agamben’s discussion of the human/animal distinction in The Open, this article examines these lais together, exploring how each seems to question the definition of what might be described as human identity while, at the same time, suggesting that humani…

Separating the Saints from the Boys
This article considers how the analysis of medieval French saints' lives might contribute to current discussions concerning the study of gender and identity in literary texts. Basing her discussion on the Vie de Saint Alexis , Campbell uses anthropological theories of the gift and its relationship to gender to explore how the masculinity of the Saint is construed in relation to networks of gift exchange, arguing that the parallel terrestrial and …
