It has been accepted for inclusion in Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business by an authorized administrator of Northwestern University School of Law Scholarly Commons. Chuaigh Ár Lá1 – Debt of A Gaelsman: Ireland’s Sovereign Debt Crisis, National and International Responses James Croke* Abstract: How did a small island nation on the periphery of Europe go from the pauper of the European Union, to a paragon of a market economy, and back to fiscal ruin within the space of twenty years? Ireland was the poorest nation in the European Economic Community (EEC) in 1988. In the late 1980’s and early 1990’s it undertook structural reforms to fundamentally reshape its economy, the result was a booming economy throughout the mid-to-late 1990’s and early 2000’s, primarily fueled by exports and foreign direct investment. Rather than continue on a sustained, but slower, growth path in the 2000’s, the Irish went on a credit binge that inflated domestic property prices to dizzying highs and resulted in a financial hangover, the likes of which had never been seen before in the Republic.

  • 1 Independent Newspapers and Irish Society, 1973-98 Mark O'brien Writing in 1889 the Legendary Nationalist MP and Newspaper Ed
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by DCU Online Research Access Service 1 Independent Newspapers and Irish society, 1973-98 Mark O’Brien Writing in 1889 the legendary nationalist MP and newspaper editor, T.P. O’Connor took a side-swipe at those publications that proclaimed their independence of all political and business interests. He declared that he liked ‘an “independent” journal as little as the politician who assumes to himself the same adjective’. In his long experience of newspapers and politics, he had, he declared, ultimately found that ‘independence’ was simply ‘a euphemism for personal vanity, personal interest, or mere crankiness of temper and opinion’.1 As we have seen in chapter two, despite its declaration that ‘The extravagances of partisanship will be unknown in the Irish Independent’, William Martin Murphy was not shy in using the Irish Independent to defend his commercial interests during the Great Lockout of 1913.2 Similarly, the Irish Press, although declaring that it would not be ‘the organ of an individual, or a group or a party’, was the political organ of Eamon de Valera and, to a lesser extent, Fianna Fáil.3 In contrast, the Irish Times was upfront about where it stood: its first edition had declared ‘As Irishmen we shall think and speak; but it shall be as Irishmen loyal to the British connection...’4 As Ireland modernised in the 1960s and as RTÉ began television broadcasting that was, by statute, obliged to be fair and impartial in relation to news and current affairs, the role of the newspaper as an advocate or defender of its owner’s political or commercial interests became outdated.

  • Ireland's Alternative Press: Writing from the Margins
    Ireland's Alternative Press: Writing from the Margins Lance Pettit Introduction [Alternative media are those that] avowedly reject or challenge established and institutionalised politics, in the sense that they all advocate change in society, or at least a critical assessment of traditional values.[...] Often founded to campaign on one particular issue, alternative media face considerable problems of survival, given their tendency to be under-financed, and unattractive to advertisers and the mass commercial market.(O'Sullivan, 1994: 10) Given the relative scarcity of published sources on the press in Ireland, it is perhaps not surprising that there is little writing on alternative publications. An Phoblacht/Republican News (AP) Gay Community News (GCN) and The Big Issues (BI) might appear to exemplify O'Sullivan's definition of 'alternative media'. This article provides an examination of the term using examples that are specific to the social and political context of Ireland in the 1990s. The material presented here is largely based on three, hour-long interviews carried out with the editors in October 1996. Table 1 below provides some key facts about the publications for reference and comparison. The aim of this article is to understand these publications in relation to, and indicators of, the wider cultural dynamic of contemporary Ireland and its mainstream press. Table 1.
