    An Annual Index of Irish Industrial Production, 1840-1913 Seán Kenny, Jason Lennard and Kevin Hjortshøj O’Rourke Working Paper # 0057 October 2020 Division of Social Science Working Paper Series New York University Abu Dhabi, Saadiyat Island P.O Box 129188, Abu Dhabi, UAE http://nyuad.nyu.edu/en/academics/academic-divisions/social-science.html An annual index of Irish industrial production, 1840-1913 Seán Kenny, Jason Lennard and Kevin Hjortshøj O’Rourke* We present the Irish industrial data available for the years 1800-1921, and construct an annual index of Irish industrial output for 1840-1913. We also construct a new industrial price index. Post-Famine industrial growth was slightly slower than previously thought, at 1.1 per cent per annum between 1851 and 1913. While per capita industrial growth was largely due to capital accumulation and technological change, rather than solely reflecting emigration, Ireland’s industrial performance was very disappointing when considered in a comparative perspective. Keywords: Ireland, Industrial production, Famine, Historical national accounts JEL: E01, N13, N14 * Kenny: Department of Economic History, Lund University.

We also thank Agustín Bénétrix for helping us with the comparative data. 1. Introduction The question of how well the Irish economy fared during the Union with Great Britain has always been politically fraught.

  • 'Iron Lung' As Metaphor
    Science Museum Group Journal ‘Iron lung’ as metaphor Journal ISSN number: 2054-5770 This article was written by Farrah Lawrence-Mackey 04-07-2020 Cite as 10.15180; 211512 Object focus ‘Iron lung’ as metaphor Published in Spring 2021, Issue 15 Article DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15180/211512 Abstract Negative pressure ventilators (NPVs) were used from the 1930s to keep patients with chest paralysis alive and they remained in use during the first half of the twentieth century. At the time paralysis was most commonly associated with poliomyelitis (infantile paralysis).[1] The most frequently used ventilators in the UK were the Both type, which were made of plywood to make them more cost effective. Despite their materiality, these wooden ventilators were, and are still, more commonly known as ‘iron lungs’. By considering the uses of the metaphor ‘iron lung’ prior to the invention of the NPV, I will argue that ‘iron lung’ became eponymous as it connected the material reality of the NPV with imagined sensory experiences for publics in the UK, though often in ways that contradicted earlier metaphors of modernity and sound. Component DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15180/211512/001 Keywords Iron Lung, metaphor, modernity, sound, senses When wood becomes iron Negative pressure ventilators (NPVs) were used from the 1930s to keep those suffering from chest paralysis alive and are most commonly associated with the treatment of polio during the first half of the twentieth century.[2] In one of the first articles on the negative pressure ventilator, Philip Drinker and Louis Shaw, the inventors of the single use NPV that commonly became known as the iron lung, instructed that the NPV should be made of ‘sheet metal (preferably sheet iron)’ and that the device would rest on an ‘iron frame’ (Drinker and Shaw, 1929).
