Sam Wetherell. Foundations: How the Built Environment Made Twentieth-Century Britain
I can still remember my first visit to the Bullring in Birmingham in the latter years of the twentieth century; the endless dark walkways, the disorientating absence of windows or natural light, the almost-unplaceable music, the down-at-heel shops. I have also returned as an adult to the new, shiny, bubble-wrapped Bullring. What I didn’t understand then, and what Wetherell’s book draws out so persuasively, is the way that these evolving urban for…
Creative Dislocation: An Experiment in Collaborative Historical Research
This article introduces an experiment in collaborative historical practice. It describes how six historians visited the East Devon village of Branscombe, with the aim of creatively engaging with the present and past of the village. This was a collaborative and collective act of what we term here 'creative dislocation'. By dislocating from our usual routines, subjects, places, methods, and styles, and adopting creative methods and constraints, we …
Reframing Irish Youth in the Sixties
When the young people of the new estates of west Dublin left school at 15, there were many opportunities for them to work in local factories, and when these factories closed their doors on Friday a
Irish urban history: An agenda
Modern Irish history is urban history. It is a story of the transferral of a populace from rural settlements to small towns and cities; of the discipline and regulation of society through new urban spaces; of the creation of capital through the construction of buildings and the sale of property. The history of Ireland has been overwhelmingly the history of land, but too often the emphasis has been on the field rather than the street, and on the s…
Sixties Ireland: Reshaping the Economy, State, and Society, 1957-73. By Mary Daly
In mid-60s a hapless junior bureaucrat from the Industrial Development Authority was dispatched to the west of Ireland to find residents willing to give up their phone lines. A new, American company was setting up a factory nearby, and—as part of its side of the bargain—the Irish government had undertaken to set up the utilities in advance. But getting a new phone line to this region of Ireland was not straightforward, simple, or quick, and here …

Photographs and “Truth” during the Northern Ireland Troubles, 1969–72
This article explores how photographs were used as evidence during the early Northern Ireland Troubles. In particular, it focuses on the collection and use of images at the Scarman Tribunal, which investigated the disturbances of the summer of 1969, and the Widgery Tribunal, which sought to ascertain the sequence of events surrounding Bloody Sunday. Through close readings of how photographs were used at these two tribunals, the article shows how …
Reading Irish Women's Lives in Photograph Albums: Dorothy Stokes and Her Camera, 1925 to 1953
This article aims to provide a new approach to photography in Ireland by shifting focus from ‘art’ photography to the processes and practices of snapshot photography. In employing a new methodological approach to photography, it also provides a new way to examine women's history, exploring photography as part of the tactics women used in order to resist or assimilate state- and Church-led discourses of womanhood, which have often been characteriz…
Seeing like a cyclist: Visibility and mobility in modern Dublin, c . 1930–1980
This article explores the visibility of the cyclist in Dublin from the 1930s to the 1980s. This visibility is explored in three ways: how the historian can and has apprehended the figure of the cyclist within the city, how the cyclist made him or herself visible within the urban environment and how cyclists were seen within techniques and conventions of urban planning. I suggest that a close examination of the place of the cyclist within the city…
Modern Dublin: Urban Change and the Irish Past, 1957-1973
During the 1960s the physical landscape of Dublin changed more than at any time since the eighteenth century. In this period the government began investing in town planning, new opportunities arose for the country's architects, and the old buildings of the core began to be replaced by modern structures. The early manifestations of this process were well received, understood as the first visible signs of prosperity and broader social and economic …

Dublin's North Inner City, Preservationism, and Irish Modernity in the 1960s
This article examines changes to Dublin's built environment in the 1960s through a study of the north inner city. It first discusses Dublin Corporation policy in the area and then studies three efforts to resist these changes, by the Irish Georgian Society, Uinseann MacEoin, and the Dublin Housing Action Committee. It argues that, due to the deficit of urban regulation emanating from central government, these groups could use preservation as a wa…
