Questioning Copernican Mediocrity
BBC Current Affairs Coverage of the 1981 Hunger Strike
This chapter examines, with extensive quotation from BBC Current Affairs programmes, the statement by Liz Curtis, in her book Ireland: The Propaganda War , that the media ‘treated the Hunger Strike as if it had been concocted out of thin air by the IRA: as if there was no real feeling behind either the prisoners’ action or the support given them by the nationalist community’; and that the media’s analysis was ‘based not on an examination of actua…

Seasonal Variation in Irish Suicidal Deaths
Lester (2) and Sanborn and S a n b r n ( 5 ) have shown that the suicidal deaths' rates for two different geographical locations in the United States display some evidence of Spring and Fall peaks. This study was an attempt to discover whether there are comparable patterns in the Republic of Ireland.

The introduction of venereal disease into Tahiti
18th century and the discovery of Tahiti for the Europeans in 1767 added considerably to this cult. The early descriptions of an idyllic, primitive society, where presumably not even man was vile, were used as a measure of the shortcomings of European 'civilization', and it was but a short step from this to the suspicion that European influence could do nothing but corrupt such an earthly paradise.1 It is small wonder then that the argu ment as t…
