It was witness to some of the most important events of the civil rights movement and the Troubles. Derry City examines Catholic Derry from the turn of the twentieth century to the end of the 1960s and the start of the Troubles. Plotting the relationships between community memory and historic change, Margo Shea provides a rich and nuanced account of the cultural, political, and social history of Derry using archival research, oral histories, landscape analysis, and public discourse. Looking through the lens of the memories Catholics cultivated and nurtured as well as those they contested, she illuminates Derry’s Catholics’ understandings of themselves and their Irish cultural and political identities through the decades that saw Home Rule, Partition, and four significant political redistricting schemes designed to maintain unionist political majorities in the largely Catholic University of Notre Dame and nationalist city. Shea weaves local history sources, community folklore, and political discourse together to Press 9780268107932 demonstrate how people maintain their agency in the midst of political and cultural conflict. As a result, the Pub Date: 6/25/20 book invites a reconsideration of the genesis of the Troubles and reframes discussions of the “problem” of Irish $55.00 USD memory.

  • STAGING and PERFORMING IDENTITY at the CROKE PARK CLASSIC: a NOTE on SPORT, GEOGRAPHY and NEOLIBERALISM. Nicholas WISE Abstract
    European Journal of Geography Volume 7, Number 4:34 - 40, December 2016 ©Association of European Geographers STAGING AND PERFORMING IDENTITY AT THE CROKE PARK CLASSIC: A NOTE ON SPORT, GEOGRAPHY AND NEOLIBERALISM. Nicholas WISE Liverpool John Moores University, Faculty of Education, Health and Community, Liverpool, UK [email protected] Abstract American Football has seen limited success in international markets until recently. This paper is based on participant observations that incorporate a geographical perspective of sport and identity focusing on an American Football event played in Dublin, Ireland. The aim of this paper is to discuss observations of how a popular American sport is staged and performed in a foreign setting. Many people from the United States travelled to Dublin to follow their university team. The event was staged to allow spectators to create a distinct atmosphere that was similar to a game played in the United States. There was much emphasis on (re)creating an American sporting experience. The match resembled a spectacle and a neoliberal discussion addresses commercialization, power, and contesting spaces. Keywords: American Football, Neoliberalism, Sport Expansion, Dublin. 1. INTRODUCTION American Football is trying to exert pressure on consumer markets where they feel they have the greatest chance to attract followers, establish new media contacts, sell merchandise, or spread American sports culture abroad (Maguire, 2011; Wise, 2011). Since American Football represents something different in Europe, showcasing elite amateur talent represents an opportunity to sell the sport in new markets. In 2014 the University of Central Florida (UCF) and Penn State University (PSU) played a regular season match in Dublin, but in front of a majority American crowd.
