“…As Pine observes in The Politics of Irish Memory, 'Over the last 30 years, Irish remembrance culture has opened up our recent history'; consequently '[w]e are not who we thought we were, or put another way, we remember ourselves differently now'. 48 Discourses of history and identity that were once fixed are now subject xx INTRODUCTION to scrutiny and deconstruction from a variety of positions, as explored by Guy Beiner, Emilie Pine and Frawley, amongst others. 49 As 'the interplay of present and past in socio-cultural contexts', cultural memory studies underpins the theoretical approach undertaken here.…”

New Directions in Irish and Irish American Literature New Directions in Irish and Irish American Literature promotes fresh scholarship that explores models of Irish and Irish American identity and examines issues that address and shape the contours of Irishness and works that investigate the fluid, shifting, and sometimes multivalent discipline of Irish Studies. Politics, the academy, gender, and Irish and Irish American culture, among other things, have not only inspired but affected recent scholarship centered on Irish and Irish American literature. The series's focus on Irish and Irish American literature and culture contributes to our twenty-first century understanding of Ireland, America, Irish Americans, and the creative, intellectual, and theoretical spaces between.

“…This article considers the (still-emerging) body of academic work which has been produced in response to this history and the state responses to survivors’ claims for justice. Although scholars across the social sciences and humanities have engaged productively with Ireland’s history of institutional abuse (see, e.g., Fischer, 2016; Garrett, 2000; Gleeson, 2017; Inglis, 1998; Lowry, 2022; O’Donnell et al, 2022; Pine, 2011), traces of the Irish case are only lightly to be found in criminological inquiry. Perhaps this is no surprise given criminology’s history of ignoring studies which have women as their focus (Daly & Chesney-Lind, 1988; Cook, 2016).…”

This article considers the phenomenon of historical gendered institutional harm, examining the widespread incarceration of women and girls in Ireland through the decades following independence in 1922. In this period, thousands of women and girls were confined in a network of sites including Magdalene Laundries and Mother and Baby Homes. The article considers the responses to this history, focusing on those fields which concern themselves with matters of “wrongdoing” and “harm,” responses grounded in law and legalism. We explore both the utility and the limits of these approaches before proposing a criminological research agenda which draws on the centrality of the state in the perpetration of gendered violence. Although Ireland has become a by-word as a case of historical institutional abuse internationally, it remains remarkably understudied by criminologists. The article explores how the Irish example can speak to the discipline of criminology by forcing us to reimagine how we conceive of gendered harms and state-perpetrated harms.

“…10 The goal of historical duty as an affective (something that must be felt) and practical (something that must be implemented) Irish capability might be summarized by Emilie Pine's definition of "ethical memory" as "a form of justice that recognizes the political nature of remembering and forgetting." 11 Crucially, it needs bodies to be animated as a formation. As Rebecca Schneider puts it pithily, "we refigure 'history' onto bodies, the affective transmissions of showing and telling."…”
