The use of culture and art to promote dialogue and understanding is a field that, though the subject of much scholarly attention, has had little impact on the behavior and activities of national governments and other stakeholders in international relations. Moreover, whilst there is a widespread agreement of the value of culture and art in raising awareness of cultural differences, there is less understanding of the potential for culture and art to offer a neutral platform for mutual cultural exchange, to transform cultural differences and unite people through emotions. "The Language of Art and Music" will work to bridge the gap between theory and practice by bringing together artists with academic experts from the field and key figures in international relations to discuss the importance of these artistic disciplines. read full story / add a comment

Bóthar na Saoirse (The Road to Freedom) is a trilogy of documentaries on the lives of Dan Breen, Tom Barry and Ernie O’Malley, iconic hardline republicans from the War of Independence. It begins on Wednesday on TG4 with My Fight For Irish Freedom, Scéal Dan Breen, the colourful and complex South Tipperary guerrilla who started the War of Independence at Soloheadbeg in 1919 on the day the First Dail sat in Dublin. Forced to flee Tipperary he joined Michael Collins’ hit squad in Dublin but then opposed the Treaty negotiated by Collins. Later he joined De Valera’s Fianna Fail and was the first anti-Treaty activist to enter Dail Eireann and take the oath of allegiance he had fought to abolish. read full story / add a comment

The British secret service MI5 has displayed nothing but contempt for democracy in Ireland, indeed its own agents are on record as describing it as Nazi like body, particularly when it comes to the Irish people throughout its history. During all its years in Ireland its agenda has involved, wholesale slaughter of Irish citizens, in directing and co-ordinating the Dublin and Monaghan no warning car bombs, that murdered 33 people.Aside from co-ordinating several such bombings against innocent Irish people, it was identifying, targeting and killing Irish people they considered a threat or challenge to their control over all of Ireland, north and south. MI5still continues to this day to frame innocent Irish people all over the island, into lengthy prison sentences, among them the innocent brother-in-law of dead hunger striker Bobby Sands for twenty years, simply on the basis of vindictiveness and his ties to the Sands family. read full story / add a comment

Slavery was abolished in the West after Roger Casement an Irish republican of good dissident stock, kicked up about it. Generally it only continues in third world places such as Africa, South-east Asia and parts of the middle-east. However bonded Labour which is reality another form of slavery, is more common than you think and has been re-introduce into Ireland, which has un-officially become a third world country again. read full story / add a comment

Today’s peace vigil at Shannon on 9 Jan 2011 was not a celebration but a commemoration of events that have been occurring over the past 11 years in Afghanistan and Iraq in which the United States waged unlawful and unjustified wars killing hundreds of thousands of people. It also commemorated and offered condolences on behalf of the many prisoners who were kidnapped, imprisoned without trial and in many cases tortured in Guantanamo and elsewhere. January 2011 also marks the 20th of the US led Gulf War in 1991, which led to the deaths of over two million Iraqi people in the decade up to 2001. read full story / add a comment |
