  • The History of the Youth Service in Northern Ireland: Volume 2 (1974 -2015)
    “Investing In Lives” The History of The Youth Service in Northern Ireland: Volume 2 (1974 -2015) Eds. (Prof.) Sam McCready & Richard Loudon The Development and Delivery of Community Relations through Youth Work Matt Milliken 1 Acknowledgements The following contributed in various ways to writing of this chapter: Gemma Attwood, Colin Dudgeon, Colin Fowler, Helen Honeyman, Monika Lubasinska, Geraldine McGreevy, David McCartney, Peter McCartney, Martin McMullan, Chuck Richardson, Gordie Walker and Derick Wilson. 2 The Development of Youth Work in A Contested Space In order to fully understand how youth workers have responded to the challenge of enduring, violent, political instability in the contested North Eastern corner of Ireland from 1973 to the present day it is first necessary to review how the youth service came into being and how the historical inter-community divisions affected and influenced its structure, role and place within Northern Irish society. Youth work in the British Isles can be traced back to the Sunday School movement of the 1780s. In the 19th century the Sunday Schools provided the foundations upon which a relational-driven youth service was subsequently built. This nascent youth service emerged initially in urban areas in response to widespread concerns about the perceived moral and physical decline of young men (and, to a lesser extent, young women) that accompanied the industrial revolution. This evolution was driven by the efforts of a number of early trailblazers who were possessed of a profound evangelical zeal. Their mission was to promote the physical and moral wellbeing of the young within a framework of Christian instruction and values.

That is a challenging aspiration and, I am pleased to say, that the staff and students of Ulster have not only embraced it, but have taken huge strides towards its achievement. Success in the development of innovative new programmes; endorsement from the Quality Assurance Agency for the institution’s present and likely future management of the academic standards of the awards it offers as well as the present and likely future management of the quality of the learning opportunities available to students; recognition for our students and academics locally, nationally and internationally: all have gone towards promoting Ulster not only as unique, but also as an institution that values excellence across the broad range of its activities. That reputation has been enhanced through visits by, among others, the President of Ireland, Mary McAleese; former US President, Dr Bill Clinton; former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, Olympic rower Sir Matthew Pinsent, golfer Rory McIlroy; and leading fashion designer Zandra Rhodes.

  • Forgetting the Ulster Plantation: John Speed's the Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain (1611) and the Colonial Archive
    Forgetting the Ulster Plantation: John Speed's The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain (1611) and the Colonial Archive Mark Netzloff Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies, Volume 31, Number 2, Spring 2001, pp. 313-348 (Article) Published by Duke University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/16488 Access provided at 29 Mar 2019 23:23 GMT from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Forgetting the Ulster Plantation: John Speed’s The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain (1611) and the Colonial Archive Mark Netzloff University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Milwaukee, Wisconsin In a document entitled “Generall heads of things in the Office of Papers, July 29, 1618,” Sir Thomas Wilson, the Keeper of Records under James I, catalogued the archival records and diplomatic correspondence he had been organizing at Whitehall since 1612 as the State Paper Office. Among 12 geographically arranged sections, Wilson noted that the largest set of hold- ings was to be found among the “Hibernia” papers: 120 books of docu- ments that included 30 books of letters from deputies and officials in Ire- land dated from 1560 to 1612, 24 papers on trade, 6 packets of private letters and petitions, as well as “some discourses about the government thereof.”1 Wilson’s efforts to organize the State Papers soon gained the atten- tion of the highest officials at Whitehall, even prompting an official visit to the office by King James himself. In a letter to James I dated 10 March 1619, Wilson reminded his monarch of this earlier visit, recollecting the king’s reaction of wonder at the size and scope of the archival collection, including James’s exclamation of surprise that “we had more to do with Ire- land than with all the world beside.”2 James’s sense of wonder at the sight of Wilson’s archive is remark- able for a number of reasons.

Let’s talk ‘isms’: Racism, Classism and Sectarianism Introduction We hear it all the time, ‘Youth are the future. They don’t carry the same baggage as we do’. So youth are sent off on Good Relations Programmes, meeting young people from other communities, classes and cultures, to listen, learn and engage. But aren’t many of us hoping to be around for another ten, twenty, thirty or even forty years? Is that not also the future? If we don’t address our own biases, hurts, and even bigotry, are we really not going to pass them on in some way to our children? Young people can learn many things from cross community – cross cultural experiences, but they also learn from the example in the home.

    2227 Directory 2019_directory06 21/01/2020 14:23 Page 40 GUILD NEWS 2019 Activities New publications Four books were published by the Ulster Historical Foundation in 2019. The late Eugene O’Callaghan’s autobiography, Busmen in the Firing Line, is a vivid and lively account of a critical period in our recent history. Keeping the buses running during the years of the Troubles was a priority which came at huge personal cost. For the busmen the experience was attritional: the entire fleet of buses was destroyed and 17 men were killed simply for turning up for work. Protecting your members from death is not a normal part of a union official’s brief, but it was Eugene’s number one priority. Setting aside their differences O’Callaghan and union colleagues worked alongside Werner Heubeck and management to keep the drivers safe. Pictured at the launch in St George’s Church are Eugene’s daughter Patricia O’Callaghan and John Dallat MLA consistently a voice of reason and humanity, endlessly challenging the widely-held assumption that it was normal and right to ‘look after one’s own people’ and ‘do down the other side’. As a torchbearer for human rights, non-violence and respect for the dignity of others, she proved herself to be decades ahead of other politicians and political parties, as many of her original ideas have come to be enshrined in law in Northern Ireland. The book was launched at Queen’s University Belfast on 3 October. The author also delivered a lunchtime lecture on Sheelagh Murnaghan at the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland on 7 October.
