The 2013 Irish Legislation on Abortion: Turning-Point Or Missed Opportunity?
NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF IRELAND GALWAY European Master’s Degree in Human Rights and Democratisation A.Y. 2013/2014 The 2013 Irish legislation on abortion: turning-point or missed opportunity? A critical analysis from a human rights perspective Author: Chiara Cosentino Supervisor: Noelle Higgins Ackowledgements I would like to thank Noelle Higgins, from the NUI of Galway, for the supervision of the present work and for her precise and insightful comments and suggestions. Furthermore, I would like to deeply thank the contacted civil society organisations that kindly and enthusiastically agreed on allowing me to steal a bit of their time for interviews. They were fundamental for my analysis, for the perception from the ground they gave me, and for the global picture that I could capture from their different angles of perspective on the topic. In particular I would love to thank for their availability Richie Keane (Coordinator of Doctors For Choice), Sinéad Corcoran (member of the Policy and Advocacy Team of Abortion Right Campaign), Kelly Mackey (from the Campaign Office of Amnesty International Ireland), Maeve Taylor (Senior Policy and Advocacy Officer of the Irish Family Planning Association) and Dette McLoughlin, John Walshe and Joseph Loughnane (members of Galway Pro-Choice). I would also like to thank my family, my parents, my sister and my grandmother for their unconditional support, and for making my participation in this Master possible, both with their practical help and love. I missed them throughout this year, but we all know that, wherever I am, they are always in my heart. Moreover, I would like to thank all my friends, old and new, for what they mean and they will always mean to me. -

We organise the annual March for Choice, which this year saw 20,000 people take to the streets of Dublin to demand a change to Ireland’s abortion laws. We aim to promote broad national support for a referendum to repeal the 8th Amendment and the introduction of free, safe and legal abortion access in the State. We believe women can be trusted to choose, and we aim to ensure the health and rights of women in Ireland are protected in line with international best practice and human rights standards. We welcome the opportunity to make a submission to the Citizens’ Assembly during its consideration of the 8th Amendment to the Constitution. 4 INTRODUCTION As the largest grassroots pro-choice organisation in Ireland, we represent those people directly affected by the 8th Amendment.

222 1 Remembering the Famine
NOTES 1 Remembering the Famine 1. Speech by the Minister of State, Avril Doyle TD, Famine Commemoration Programme, 27 June 1995. 2. The text of a message from the British Prime Minister, Mr Tony Blair, delivered by Britain’s Ambassador to the Republic of Ireland, Veronica Sutherland, on Saturday 31 May 1997 at the Great Irish Famine Event, in Cork (British Information Services, 212). 3. Irish News, 4 February 1997. 4. The designation of the event is contested; some nationalists find the use of the word ‘famine’ offensive and inappropriate given the large amounts of food exported from Ireland. For more on the debate, see Kinealy, A Death-Dealing Famine: The Great Hunger in Ireland (Pluto Press, 1997), Chapter 1. 5. The Irish Times, 3 June 1995. 6. The most influential work which laid the ground for much subsequent revisionist writing was R. D. Crotty, Irish Agricultural Production (Cork University Press, 1996). 7. The most polished and widely read exposition of the revisionist interpretation was provided in Roy Foster, Modern Ireland, 1600–1972 (London, 1988). 8. Roy Foster, ‘We are all Revisionists Now’, in Irish Review (Cork, 1986), pp. 1–6. 9. Professor Seamus Metress, The Irish People, 10 January 1996. Similar arguments have also been expressed by Professor Brendan Bradshaw of Cambridge Univer- sity, a consistent – but isolated – opponent of revisionist interpretation. See, for example, Irish Historical Studies, xxvi: 104 (November 1989), pp. 329–51. 10. Christine Kinealy, ‘Beyond Revisionism’, in History Ireland: Reassessing the Irish Famine (Winter 1995). 11. For more on this episode, see Cormac Ó Gráda, ‘Making History in Ireland in the 1940s and 1950s: The Saga of the Great Famine’, in The Irish Review (1992), pp. -
Guerrilla Glamour: the Queer Tactics of Dr. Panti Bliss Emer O'toole
Guerrilla Glamour: The Queer Tactics of Dr. Panti Bliss Emer O'Toole Éire-Ireland, Volume 52, Numbers 3 & 4, Fall/Winter 2017, pp. 104-121 (Article) Published by Irish-American Cultural Institute DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/eir.2017.0024 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/680366 Access provided by New York University (13 Feb 2018 16:50 GMT) Emer O’Toole Guerrilla Glamour: The Queer Tactics of Dr. Panti Bliss Setting the Scene Drag queen Panti Bliss should be conservative Ireland’s worst gay nightmare. Erstwhile organizer of kink nights, openly HIV positive, landlady of a Northside Dublin gay bar, and author of a memoir de- tailing performance art that involves pulling interesting things from her anus, Bliss strays very far from what some queer theorists (e.g., Butler, “Kinship”; Warner; Duggan; Mulhall) consider assimilation- ist political strategies—that is, from gaining rights through modeling gay lifestyles on heterosexual ones rather than through challenging heterosexual institutions. Yet in 2014, following a series of high- profile media and legal events, Bliss became a unifying figurehead for Ireland’s marriage-equality efforts, a self-professed accidental activist whose efforts were crucial to securing a resounding 62 percent vic- tory for the Yes Equality campaign in Ireland’s referendum on same- sex marriage. This article draws on performativity theory to argue for the counterintuitive position that it is precisely Bliss’s status as an os- tentatious drag queen that renders her palatable to a hetero- sexist and homophobic society. It analyzes Bliss’s now iconic “Noble Call” speech from the stage of the Abbey Theatre on 1 Febru- ary 2014 as well as the messaging tactics of the Yes Equality campaign in order to contend that drag provides Bliss permission to speak de- nied to everyday queer behaviors and identities.
