    The Reemergence of Emigration from Ireland

    THE RE-EMERGENCE OF EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND NEW TRENDS IN AN OLD STORY By Irial Glynn with Tomás Kelly and Piaras Mac Éinrí TRANSATLANTIC COUNCIL ON MIGRATION THE RE-EMERGENCE OF EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND New Trends in An Old Story By Irial Glynn with Tomás Kelly and Piaras Mac Éinrí December 2015 Acknowledgments Much of the research on which this report is based was carried out as a result of a one-year Irish Research Council grant, which enabled the completion of the EMIGRE (“EMIGration and the propensity to REturn”) project at University College Cork between October 2012 to September 2013. The resulting paper was completed with the support of a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship within the 7th European Community Framework Program. Thanks go to Natalia Banulescu-Bogdan and Kate Hooper from the Migration Policy Institute for their insightful comments on earlier drafts. This research was commissioned by the Transatlantic Council on Migration, an initiative of the Migration Policy Institute (MPI), for its twelfth plenary meeting, held in Lisbon. The meeting’s theme was “Rethinking Emigration: A Lost Generation or a New Era of Mobility?” and this paper was one of the reports that informed the Council’s discussions. The Council is a unique deliberative body that examines vital policy issues and informs migration policymaking processes in North America and Europe. The Council’s work is generously supported by the following foundations and governments: Open Society Foundations, Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Barrow Cadbury Trust, the Luso- American Development Foundation, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, and the governments of Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.

Since the founding of the Cincinnati chapter in 1868, the society has maintained a tradition of openness to Irish as well as non-Irish men of goodwill, without regard to ethnic or religious origin. There were two predecessors to the Cincinnati Society - Philadelphia, founded in 1771 and New York, founded in 1784.

Baseball Ireland Tours New England Baseball Ireland is a 21-year-old organization that has taken America’s pastime and spread it widely around the Emerald Isle in three active divisions – adult, youth, and cadet. There are ten teams in the league, seven of them in Dublin with the others playing out of Belfast and Wicklow. Last month, a team made up of adult players and another full of Little Leaguers, took their gloves and balls to New England where they toured across three states over the last two weeks, with a stop on Sunday the 25th at Cunningham Park in Milton where the Irish Nationals played an exhibition against players from the regional Yawkey League in front of an enthusiastic gathering of fans, friends, and neighbors.

It is intended as a short briefing on the functioning of the Dáil and a simple explanation of specific areas that may be of interest to people operating in the community/NGO sector in attempting to make the best use of the Dáil. This briefing document is produced as a result of the EAPN Focus on Poverty in Ireland project, which started in December 2006. This project aimed to raise awareness of poverty and put poverty reduction at the top of the political agenda, while also promoting understanding and involvement in the social inclusion process among people experiencing poverty. This Guide is intended as an accompanying document to the EAPN Guide to Understanding and Engaging with the European Union. The overall aim in producing these two guides is to inform people working in the community and voluntary sector of how to engage with the Irish Parliament and the European Union in influencing policy and voicing their concerns about poverty and social inclusion issues.
