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…
Experiences of the Irish model of community medical abortion
The Irish abortion model of care, implemented in January 2019, is distinctive for being located primarily in the community and relying principally on medical abortion outside a clinical setting. The model facilitated mapping onto existing healthcare structures and thereby allowed abortion provision to commence quickly after Repeal of the 8th Amendment. This article considers the operation of the Irish model of abortion care under 12 weeks gestati…
Performance Encounters with Ana Mendieta
Cuban-American artist Ana Mendieta (1948–1985) was interested in nature, spiritualism, displacement, violence and death. Exiled from Cuba in 1961, Mendieta’s enigmatic performances explored rituals and nature, drawing upon Santería, an Afro-Cuban religion rooted in traditional West African and Roman Catholicism religions. In Silueta Series (1973–80), Mendieta traced her silhouette on the earth, capturing the dematerialized body in these compellin…
New-materialist bricolage
The purpose of this paper is to make a novel contribution to new-materialist approaches, toward advancing existing ontological debates. We present a new-materialist bricolage method that was developed from an existing interpretive Community of Practice (CofP) known as the Pivot Project research consortium. This interpretative community was used to theorise the ontological implications of research in the COVID-19 global pandemic. The specific focu…
Say Nope to the Pope
In September 1979, the newly elected head of the Catholic Church, Pope John Paul II, made a historic pastoral visit to Ireland where he celebrated an open-air mass in Dublin's Phoenix Park to an estimated 1,250,000 people, a third of the country's population.In August 2018, Pope Francis returned to Ireland, though the second papal visit was met with a series of protests and a lower-thanexpected turn-out at the public mass in Phoenix Park.In the i…

Leading Change
This article examines how the Dublin Bay North (DBN) Repeal the 8th activist group, an independent women-led, grassroots movement in the largest constituency in Ireland, practiced a collectivist approach to forms of ‘power-with’ and ‘power-to’ (Allen, 2018) that enabled the group to create an activist community based upon a feminist ethics of ‘caring-with’ (Tronto, 1993). In 2018 in Dublin, what had been a narrow majority in 1983 against abortion…
Touch in Irish performance art
Over the last 50 years, Irish feminists have campaigned for women’s sexual health and reproductive rights, including access to contraception, legal abortion and choice in maternity care and childbirth. Recent cases like Ms. Y (2014), P. P. v. HSE (2014) and Ms. B (2016) invite a close scrutiny of the power dynamics relating to women’s reproductive bodies in Ireland. This article examines Becoming Beloved (1995) and The Touching Contract (2016), t…
Women’s Troubles
The work of internationally acclaimed lens-based artist Willie Doherty proposes rich and nuanced understandings of the agency and participation of women in the Troubles in Northern Ireland. In a large number of visual and cultural representations of the ethno-nationalist violence of the Troubles, the conflict is often gendered as masculine, with women featuring primarily as victims and innocent bystanders. This essay examines Doherty’s Same Diffe…
