It will unpack these challenges\, with an emphasis on how we do knowledge production in this contentious area of public policy. We will look at data gathering tools and mechanisms and also the attendant ethical\, political and epistemological aspects. It understands research in this area as necessarily creating particular sets of tensions that researchers need to acknowledge. Following opening presentations\, the workshop will proceed through an open dialogue.  \nBiographical Notes: \nDr. EilÌ_s Ward is a member of the Management Committee of ProsPoi\, the EU funded Cost Action network on prostitution policies and has been writing and researching in this area for over ten years. She recently completed a joint QUB/NUIG research project on prostitution in Northern Ireland (Huschke et al 2014)\, funded by the N I Department of Justice and has engaged with the policy process in the Republic of Ireland on proposed changes in its prostitution regime. \nDr. Ivana Radacic is also a member of the ProsPol management Committee and is a Research Associate at the Ivo Pilar institute and part time lecturer in the University of Zagreb.

SUMMARY:Inish Festival - Thursday 28th May to Sunday 31st May
DESCRIPTION:Inishbofin festival promises a wealth of poetry\, music and ‰Û÷Island Conversations’ \nAn innovative cultural festival\, featuring the best in literature\, poetry\, film and music will take place on the island of Inishbofin from Thursday 28th to Sunday 31st May next.  The inaugural Inish Festival – subtitled “Island Conversations”- will see international musicians\, writers and artists convene in this special\, secluded place for performances\, talks\, and conversations based around themes of insularity\, isolation and the role of the arts in society. The island of Inishbofin itself has inspired a host of writers\, including the poets Ted Hughes\, Sylvia Plath and Richard Murphy\, and its strong musical and cultural traditions make it the ideal venue in which to examine what makes islands such special places\, and examine what it is live on\, or be culturally inspired by\, Ireland’s offshore islands. The programme for the festival will appeal to a wide range of tastes\, featuring as it does readings from writers such as Kevin Barry\, Bernard O’Donoghue and Moya Cannon\, concerts with Declan O’Rourke\, The Voice Squad\, musicians Renaud Garcia-Fons\, Zoe Conway and John McIntyre\, and films by Directors Pat Collins\, Kieran Concannon and Alec Moore. Leading academics\, such as Prof. Lee Morrissey\, Prof. Daniel Carey\, Dr. Adrian Paterson and Dr. Rebecca Barr will address subjects such as ‰Û÷Literary Islands’ and the concept of ‰Û÷Citizenship\, Identity and the Irish Archipelago’. A highlight of the festival will be an examination of the poetry of Richard Murphy\, whose ‰Û÷Sailing to an Island’ is the poem most people associate with Inishbofin. Murphy\, now eighty-eight\, currently lives in Sri Lanka\, but a recorded interview with him by festival organiser\, filmmaker and Inishbofin native\, Peadar King will be a rare opportunity to hear the poet talk about his work\, and the inspiration behind it.  A full programme for the festival can be found at inishfestival.com. As accommodation on the island is limited\, early booking is advisable. \nFor further information log in to www.inishfestival.com or email inishfestival@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Charles Barr\, Moore Institute Visiting Fellow - Filming O'Casey
DESCRIPTION:Charles Barr\, Moore Institute Visiting Fellow \nFilming O’Casey \nVenue: Huston School Main Room \nSean O’Casey never had much respect for commercial cinema\, even though he worked with two of its greatest directors. Alfred Hitchcock filmed Juno and the Paycock in England in 1929; John Ford filmed The Plough and the Stars in Hollywood in 1937. Both directors had sincere respect for the plays\, and for the Abbey Theatre actors whom they took care to use in many key roles\, but critics have agreed with O’Casey in disliking the results. This talk\, illustrated with documents as well as extracts\, examines the reasons for this hostility\, while making a revisionist case for the value of both films. Hitchcock’s\, as an early-sound record of\, especially\, Sarah Allgood’s definitive performance as Juno; Ford’s\, as a legitimate\, and historically fascinating\, reworking of O’Casey from his own more romantic perspective on the Easter Rising of 1916. Young Cassidy (1965) provides a footnote: a loose and lively biopic of O’Casey\, part-directed by Ford\, partly in Dublin\, towards the end of Ford’s career and of O’Casey’s life. Charles Barr has taught in the past at the Huston School as an Adjunct Professor\, and is back in Galway thanks to a research grant from the Moore Institute. His talk draws on collections held in the library. He has published extensively both on Ford and on Hitchcock; his new book\, co-authored for the University of Kentucky Press with the Parisian scholar Alain Kerzoncuf\, is Hitchcock\, Lost and Found – the Forgotten Films. There are two events at Filmbase in Dublin on the afternoon of 27th May\, to discuss Educating Film-makers and to launch Charles Barr’s Hitchcock Lost and Found – The Forgotten Films: ‘Cultivating Film-makers’ Hitchcock Lost and Found  \nFor more information please contact rod.stoneman@nuigalway.ie

SUMMARY:Ian McBride\, Kings College London and Moore Institute Visiting Fellow -Dealing with the Past in Northern Ireland
DESCRIPTION:The recent controversy over the ‰Û÷Boston Project’ tapes has demonstrated that the unfinished business of the Troubles still has the power to disrupt political progress in Northern Ireland; but it also reveals the attempts of disparate republican voices to establish the dominant narrative of ‰Û÷armed struggle’.  This talk examines the memoirs of former IRA men (Sean O’Callaghan\, Eamon Collins\, Gerry Bradley\, Brendan Hughes)\, focusing on varieties of disenchantment with the republican campaign and the anticipated futures that have fuelled republican activism.  It will explore the particular political junctures that have shaped these works and the difficulties they present as sources for historians. \nAbout the Speaker\nIan McBride is Professor of Irish and British History at King’s College London. He has written on various aspects of modern Irish history. His forthcoming works include Irish Political Writings 1: TheCambridge Edition of the Works of Jonathan Swift (2016) and The Princeton History of Modern Ireland\, co-edited with Richard Bourke (2015).  Since editing History and Memory in Modern Ireland (Cambridge\, 2001) he has been interested in contemporary uses of the past.  His current research focuses on debates over truth and reconciliation in Northern Ireland since 1998\, and the relationship between political violence\, representations of the past and professional historiography. \nOrganised by the Conflict\, Humanitarianism and Security Research Custer \nFor more information please contact niall.odochartaigh@nuigalway.ie

SUMMARY:Dr Kevin James is Associate Professor of History at the University of Guelph and Moore Institute Visiting Fellow - 'Take my advice\, go to Mongan's Hotel': Sport\, Charity\, and Tourism in late-Victorian Rural Co. Galway
DESCRIPTION:Dr Kevin James\, University of Guelph and Moore Institute Visiting Fellow\n‘Take my advice\, go to Mongan’s Hotel’: Sport\, Charity\, and Tourism in late-Victorian Rural Co. Galway\n A free public lecture entitled ‰Û÷Take my advice\, go to Mongan’s Hotel: Sport\, Charity\, and Tourism in Late-Victorian Connemara’ will be held in Galway city on Monday\, 11 May at 7 pm. The lecture will be delivered by Dr Kevin James\, Associate Professor of History at the University of Guelph\, Ontario\, and will take place in the Galway City Library in Augustine St\, under the auspices of NUI Galway’s Moore Institute \nMongan’s Hotel in Carna\, Co. Galway\, was an historic site of pilgrimage for the sporting tourist in the nineteenth century\, and served as a social\, commercial\, and cultural hub of the district. In the 1890s\, initiatives aimed at alleviating distress and developing the district’s economy highlighted the important role of the hotel and its proprietor\, Martin Mongan. He forged connections between the locality and organisations and markets farther afield – notably in Manchester. The evidence appears in the hotel’s historic visitors’ book. \nThis public lecture will look at how Mongan’s provided a venue for tourism\, a magnet for sports enthusiasts\, and a site for charitable activity. \nProfessor Daniel Carey\, Director of the Moore Institute at NUI Galway\, said: “Kevin James’s work has opened up new vistas on the history of travel to Co. Galway. Visitors’ books offer an intriguing glimpse into a lost world in the nineteenth century.”  Dr Kevin James is author of Tourism\, Land and Landscape in Ireland: The Commodification of Culture. In spring 2014\, he held a Moore Institute Visiting Research Fellowship to support his research at the James Hardiman Library\, NUI Galway. \nFor more information contact : Dr John Cunningham\, Department of History\, NUI Galway at john.cunningham@nuigalway.ie or phone 091 493902.

SUMMARY:Gender ARC Public Lecture: Sylvia Walby\, Distinguished Professor\, UNESCO Chair of Gender Research Department of Sociology\, Lancaster University -Preventing gender based violence against women: Can this be mainstreamed?
DESCRIPTION:Gender ARC and Global Women’s Studies at NUI Galway are pleased to invite you to a public lecture:  \n \nSylvia Walby\, Distinguished Professor\, UNESCO Chair of Gender Research \nDepartment of Sociology\, Lancaster University \nPreventing gender based violence against women: Can this be mainstreamed? \n \nAll Welcome \nRefreshments will be served – please RSVP to Gillian Browne (gillian.browne@nuigalway.ie)   Abstract: Preventing violence against women requires reforms in all social institutions.  It cannot be solved by a narrow focus on one domain\, such as the criminal justice system.  The policy device of ‰Û÷gender mainstreaming’ has potential to reach into all policy domains; but it has not yet been successful.  How should the necessary transformations be theorised; how can they be put into practice?  What are the strengths and limits of gender mainstreaming?  Is estimating the ‰Û÷cost’ of violence against women to economy and society a way forward\, reaching parts of policy and political institutions that no feminist action could otherwise reach? This talk explores the dilemmas in the current debates on how best to prevent violence against women and reaches a decisive conclusion.   Sylvia Walby is Distinguished Professor of Sociology and UNESCO Chair in Gender Research\, Lancaster University\, UK.  She has been advising on the cost of gender-based violence for the European Institute for Gender Equality and UK Home Office.  She is leading an ESRC funded project: ‰Û÷Is domestic violence increasing or decreasing? She is currently working on the measurement of gender-based violence for the Council of Europe to assist the implementation of the Istanbul Convention’s Article 11.  Recent books include: Globalization and Inequalities: Complexity and Contested Modernities (Sage 2009) and The Future of Feminism (Polity 2011). Her next book is the jointly authored Stopping Rape: Towards a Comprehensive Policy (forthcoming Policy Press 2015)\, which draws on work for the European Parliament.  This will be followed by Crisis for Polity Press (forthcoming 2015).

SUMMARY:Digital Scholarship Seminar: Franck Cinato (Centre national de la recherche scientifique\, Paris) Collaborative Digital Editing: Experience from the Liber Glossarum Project
DESCRIPTION:Digital Scholarship Seminar:\nFranck Cinato (Centre national de la recherche scientifique\, Paris)\nCollaborative Digital Editing: Experience from the Liber Glossarum Project\nAbstract: This presentation will share experience from a large-scale project to produce a new collaborative digital edition of the Liber Glossarum\, a vast encyclopaedic dictionary (c. 30\,000 entries) compiled in a female monastery in northern France around the end of the eighth century. Despite its status a foundational educational resource throughout the Middle Ages\, the text has been neglected by scholars due to the absence to date of any complete edition. The scale of the project requires the involvement of specialists throughout Europe\, and the core of the project is a website providing a collaborative platform. http://liber-glossarum.linguist.univ-paris-diderot.fr/ \nBio: Dr Franck Cinato is a researcher at the CNRS\, Paris. He completed a doctorate in 2010 on early medieval glossing at the Ìäcole Pratique des Hautes Ìätudes\, Paris. He also has an interest in experimental archaeology\, and in 2009 co-published an edition of the earliest European manual on the art of sword-fighting. \nConnect with DSS: Website | Facebook | Mailing list \nFor further informatition\, contact: Dr PÌÁdraic Moran (padraic.moran@nuigalway.ie)\, \nor Dr Justitin Tonra (justitin.tonra@nuigalway.ie) \nwww.nuigalway.ie/digital-seminar ‰ۢ www.facebook.com/nuigdss

SUMMARY:The 12th Annual Irish Theatrical Diaspora Conference - April 30th and May 1st
DESCRIPTION:NUI Galway Centre for Drama\, Theatre and Performance\, the Irish Theatrical Diaspora Project (ITD)\, and the Gate Theatre present: \nThe 12th Annual \nIRISH THEATRICAL DIASPORA CONFERENCE \nTheme: DUBLIN’S GATE THEATRE \n30 April and 1 May 2015 \nThe Gate Theatre\, Parnell Square\, Dublin 1 \nSince the Gate Theatre was founded by Hilton Edwards and MicheÌÁl Mac LiammÌ_ir in 1928\, it has been a vital and essential presence in Dublin theatrical life. The Gate has given us outstanding\, landmark productions (including the legendary Juno and the Paycock from 1986\, the first Salom̩ in English in 1928\, and world premieres of classic plays by Denis Johnston and Brian Friel)\, brilliant festivals (including the performance of all 19 stage plays by Samuel Beckett in 1991 and four festivals dedicated to the work of Harold Pinter)\, and daring tours (to China\, Egypt\, Israel\, and beyond); it has also launched the careers of internationally-renowned actors (including Orson Welles\, James Mason\, and Michael Gambon)\, and important Gate productions have featured some of Ireland and Britain’s most famous actors (including SiobhÌÁn McKenna\, David Kelly\, Kenneth Branagh\, Ralph Fiennes\, CiarÌÁn Hinds\, John Hurt\, Liam Neeson\, Stephen Rea\, and – memorably – Sin̩ad\, Sorcha\, and Niamh Cusack alongside their father\, Cyril\, in Chekhov’s Three Sisters). \nGiven the immense importance of the Gate’s contribution to Irish theatrical culture\, it has received less critical attention than it deserves. As such\, this year’s Irish Theatrical Diaspora Conference will be dedicated to examining the Gate and the theatre practitioners associated with it – not just the celebrated artists mentioned above but also unsung figures such as Lord and Lady Longford\, Mary Manning\, Mainie Jellett\, and Harry Kernoff. The conference will feature a public interview with Michael Colgan (the theatre’s artistic director and the man behind many of its greatest achievements) and performances from actors associated with the Gate (such as Barry McGovern\, Bryan Murray\, and Michael James Ford); the programme will also include academic panels and plenary sessions which explore the theatre’s past\, present and future. Surprisingly\, this will be the first academic conference devoted entirely to the Gate. \nTo register for this conference – or to obtain more information about it – please write to Dr. David Clare (david.clare@nuigalway.ie) or Des Lally (desmlally@gmail.com). The conference is free of charge but space is limited\, so advance registration is required. \nPROVISIONAL PROGRAMME \nTHURS.\, 30 April 2015  \n9.00am-9.20am: Registration GATE THEATRE CAFÌä / Tea and Coffee served \n9.20am-9.30am: Opening Remarks GATE AUDITORIUM \n9.30am-10.30am: PLENARY SESSION – Richard Pine (Durrell School of Corfu) on “Micheal Mac LiammÌ_ir\, the Exotic-Erotic\, and the Gate Theatre’s place in Irish Theatre Studies” GATE AUDITORIUM \n10.30am-11.00am: Tea and Coffee GATE THEATRE CAFÌä AND BAR \n11.00-12.30pm: PANEL ONE – MAC LIAMMÌÒIR AND EDWARDS (Chair: Miriam Haughton of NUI Galway) GATE AUDITORIUM \nThomas Madden (NUIM) – “Letting Mac LiammÌ_ir Speak” \nRuud van den Beuken (Radboud University Nijmegen) – “A Future Femme Fatale: Prospective Memory Structures in MicheÌÁl Mac LiammÌ_ir’s Diarmuid and GrÌÁinne“ \nDes Lally (NUI Galway) – “The Fictionalization of Hilton Edwards and MicheÌÁl Mac LiammÌ_ir in Paul Smith’s Novel Stravaganza!“ \n12.30pm-1.30pm: Lunch Break \n1.30pm-3.00pm: PANEL TWO – BECKETT (Chair: Feargal Whelan of UCD) GATE AUDITORIUM \nTrish McTighe (University of Reading) – “‰Û÷Be again\, be again’: The Gate’s Beckett Country” \nDavid Clare (NUI Galway) – “The Gate Theatre’s Beckett Festivals: Tensions between the Local and the Global” \nAoife Lynch (UCD) – “Beckett’s Endgame\, Entropy\, and the Second Law of Thermodynamics” \n3.00pm-3.45pm: Rehearsed Reading of The Old Tune\, by Samuel Beckett (after Robert Pinget)\, starring Barry McGovern and Bryan Murray (presented with support from the Irish Research Council) GATE AUDITORIUM \n3.45pm-4.00pm: Tea and Coffee GATE THEATRE CAFÌä AND BAR \n4.00pm-5.30pm: PANEL THREE – NEGLECTED PLAYWRIGHTS (Chair: Des Lally of NUI Galway) GATE AUDITORIUM \nPaige Reynolds (Holy Cross) – “Mary Manning at the Gate” \nFeargal Whelan (UCD) – “Lord Longford’s Yahoo: Swift and Anglo-Irish nationalism in the 1930s” \nVirginie Girel-Pietka (CECILLE\, Universit̩ Lille 3) – “Denis Johnston at the Gate” \n6.00pm-7.00pm: PLENARY SESSION – Public Interview with Michael Colgan (conducted by Vincent Woods of RTÌä) THE GATE LAB \nFRI.\, 1 May 2015  \n9.00am-9.20am: Registration GATE THEATRE CAFÌä / Tea and Coffee served \n9.20am-9.30am: Organiser Remarks GATE AUDITORIUM \n9.30am-11.00am: PANEL FOUR -WILDE AND SHAW (Chair: David Clare of NUI Galway) GATE AUDITORIUM \nAudrey McNamara (UCD) – “The Actress Meets the Bishop at the Gate: SiobhÌÁn McKenna in Bernard Shaw’s Saint Joan“ \nNoreen Doody (St. Patrick’s College\, DCU) – “‰Û÷Our only thorough playwright’: Oscar Wilde and the Gate Theatre\, Dublin” \nIan R.

SUMMARY:Public Lecture: Peter Killeen\, Arizona State University and Moore Institute Visiting Fellow: What is Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)\, and where does it come from?
DESCRIPTION:What is Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)\, and where does it come from? \nThe simplest definition of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) consists of a list of the typical symptoms.  Professor Killeen provides a more comprehensive definition that informs us of the events that trigger ADHD in both its acute and chronic manifestations; the neurobiology that underlies it; and the evolutionary forces that have kept it in the germ line of our species. These factors are organized in terms of Aristotle’s four kinds of “causes\,” or explanations: formal\, efficient\, material\, and final.  By providing this more complete picture of the syndrome\, we gain a deeper understanding and the potential to identify novel approaches to accommodate and remediate the behavior of people with ADHD. \nProfessor Peter Killeen is currently a visiting fellow at the Moore Institute in NUI Galway.  He is emeritus professor of psychology at Arizona State University\, and has also been visiting scholar at the University of Texas\, Cambridge University\, and the Centre for Advanced Study\, Oslo. \nProfessor Killeen has made landmark contributions to a remarkable number of fields in the behavioral sciences\, including the experimental study of learning\, decision-making\, timing and memory.  His major work includes the development of incentive theory\, culminating in the mathematical principles of reinforcement (Behavioural and Brain Sciences\, 1994)\, and the behavioral theory of timing (Psychological Review\, 1988). He also developed a novel statistical technique (pRep) that was adopted by Psychological Science\, one of the foremost journals in psychology. Professor Killeen’s quantitative and conceptual developments have enriched psychology and the world beyond.

SUMMARY:Panel Discussion: Smoking: Are e-cigarettes part of the problem or part of the solution?
DESCRIPTION:Smoking: Are e-cigarettes part of the problem or part of the solution? \nA panel discussion \nAccording to the WHO\, tobacco use kills more than 5 million people per year. It is responsible for 1 in 10 adult deaths. Among the five greatest risk factors for mortality\, it is the single most preventable cause of death.  Recently\, e-cigarettes have been introduced that provide nicotine in vapour form.  The question that the panel will discuss is whether e-cigarettes are part of the solution to the problem of smoking-related mortality or not. \nThe panel will consider \nthe commercial interests that are served by making e-cigarettes more or less available \nPanel members \nProfessor Peter Killeen is currently a visiting fellow at the Moore Institute in NUI Galway.  He is emeritus professor of psychology at Arizona State University\, and has also been visiting scholar at the University of Texas\, Cambridge University\, and the Centre for Advanced Study\, Oslo. \nProfessor David Finn is Professor of Pharmacology and Therapeutics\, Science Foundation Ireland Principal Investigator\, Co-Founder and Co-Director of the Centre for Pain Research and Leader of the Galway Neuroscience Centre at NUI Galway. \nDr Brendan Kennelly is a lecturer in health economics at NUI Galway.

SUMMARY:ÌÒ Briain Annual Public Lecture - Prof Jan Pedersen\, University of Stockholm\, 'Subtitling Cultural References: When Mr Rodgers became Donald Duck
DESCRIPTION:ÌÒ Briain Annual Public Lecture – Prof Jan Pedersen\,\nUniversity of Stockholm\, ‘Subtitling Cultural\nReferences: When Mr Rodgers became Donald Duck \nOne of the classic translation problems is cultural references\, and when it comes to subtitling the constraints are quite severe: not only is there a shift from spoken to written mode but there is also the question of polysemiotics. In a polysemiotic text\, such as a film or a TV programme\, the subtitles have to coexist with other semiotic channels\, with which they should ideally cohere. This talk presents a model for analysis (and production) of ways in which Extralinguistic Cultural References (ECRs) can be rendered in subtitling. It also explains how Mr Rogers became Donald Duck. \nFor more information please contact suzanne.gilsenan@nuigalway.ie
