This article focuses on the tale of two sisters, Margaret and Judith Byrne, who were arrested in Dundalk for the larceny of a pair of shoes, transferred to Grange Gorman Lane, transportation depot, and disposed of on the Phoebe in 1845 to Van Diemen’s Land.  This article examines the case as it was presented to the courts including the petitions put forward on behalf of the sisters.  Their journey from Dundalk to Hobart will be considered and documentary analysis will uncover how the sisters fared once they stepped foot on Vandemonian soil.

<summary type="text">Invisible Farmers: the Role of Irish Women in the National Farmers’ Association, Farmers’ Rights Campaign of the 1960s.
Gibbons, Mary
This article examines the role of Irish farmwomen during the National Farmers’ Association, Farmers’ Rights Campaign, which took place in 1966-67. It shows the “invisible” role that these women played during this campaign. These women illustrate the notion of “love labour”, which seeks to disguise the true value of their contribution by presenting it as an act of love rather than attributing to it the true value of work. It shows how these farmwomen diminish their own role during the campaign as secondary to that of their husbands. This article addresses the importance of having a gender perspective to analyse historical phenomena; the emergence of social movements; and highlights the role of religion in the lives of Irish farming people at that time.

<summary type="text">Philosophy and the Morality of Abortion
Baker, John
Abortion is a philosophically interesting issue because both sides seem so certain of their conclusions, yet the issue is at the same time clearly a derivative one. It is also highly political, and needs to be seen within the context of the growth of the women's movement. A philosophical overview of the issue in section 1 construes the central claims of the pro-choice and anti-abortion positions as moral and conceptual constructions, which extend everyday moral thinking into the area of abortion. It notes the interesting relation between such constructions and other arguments about abortion, and how this is responsible for their social and historical specificity. Section 2 defends the pro-choice position as a victory of moral sensitivity over linguistic guile. Section 3 situates the argument within the politics of feminism, and recognises the limited contribution which philosophy is able to make.

<summary type="text">Rights-Based Approaches to Food Poverty in Ireland
O'Connor, Deirdre; Cantillon, Sara; Walsh, Judy
In Ireland food poverty has emerged as an increasingly important issue on the social policy agenda. The reasons for this include the changing understanding of the nature of food poverty, its causes, dimensions and the development of solutions, as well as a growing awareness that food remains a central dimension of people’s experience of poverty even within industrialised countries. Alongside these developments there is a growing interest in the role of rights-based approaches to poverty alleviation generally and specifically to the issue of food poverty. This paper begins by mapping the main contours of the international human rights system and academic literature in order to ground food poverty within the overarching political and legal framework. In view of the fact that food poverty is central to people’s experience of poverty, it is necessary to review the conceptual literature on poverty generally and to identify the primary state-level mechanisms associated with poverty alleviation. More specifically, this study also identifies the key concepts, actors and interventions that pertain to food poverty in Ireland. This is followed by a summary of the discussion and analysis generated from a one-day workshop which took place in Dublin in March 2008, at which various stakeholders explored the potential of using rights-based approaches to food poverty in Ireland. The paper concludes that rights-based approaches have not featured prominently in interventions to address issues of poverty in general, or food poverty specifically, and activists and practitioners working in the arena of food poverty point to significant challenges in progressing this approach. Institutional resistance to the adoption of a rights-based approach is a significant factor, as is the primacy of private sector interests who are the ‘gatekeepers’ of the contemporary food system. At the same time, insights from the work of human rights organisations who work on food and those who use the approach in other settings suggest that it is a promising avenue to explore. Of particular significance is its potential to address issues of power relations between marginalised groups and policy-makers and to locate local issues and responses within a framework of international human rights law.

<summary type="text">Reflections on Developing a National Campaign for Basic Income in Ireland
Ryan, Anne B.; Baker, John
In May 2011, a number of people got together to reactivate BIEN Ireland, which is one of BIEN’s oldest national affiliates. This paper gives a brief narrative of the activities of the group over its first 15 months. Because many of the members had not previously been involved in BIEN, our aim was to develop an approach to our objectives and strategy that involved the development of shared understandings and mutual learning. Recognising the limits on participation set by people’s other commitments, we aimed to spread the workload in ways that were sustainable and inclusive. This paper is intended to give us a chance to reflect on what we have achieved and failed to achieve, to share our experience with others, and to learn from the experience of others.

<summary type="text">Inequalities of Love and Care and their Theoretical Implications
Baker, John; Lynch, Kathleen
In this paper we use the framework developed in Equality: From Theory to Action to review some recent empirical research into caring relationships. This research shows that even within the context of care, inequality is multidimensional. It reveals complex patterns of inequality of work, resources, love and care, power and respect and recognition, shaped by many social factors including gender, social class, family status and disability. We also argue that this research raises important issues for normative political theory. In some cases the implications seem fairly straightforward. In others, it highlights questions that egalitarian theorists need to address more thoroughly.

It is common knowledge that people’s beliefs are determined by many factors – having a good argument is only one of them. What are the implications of this fact for egalitarian political theorists who hope to contribute to social change? I argue that our arguments may do more to strengthen the confidence of our allies than to change the opinions of our opponents.

<summary type="text">An egalitarian case for basic income
Baker, John
In section 1, I set out a general perspective on the nature of egalitarianism and relate it to some familiar conceptions of economic equality.  In section 2, I argue in keeping with the popular notion of equality that it makes sense to think of equal income as a baseline against which departures need to be justified.  Section 3 discusses some problems which arise concerning departures from equal income justified by different needs, and argues for a particular approach based on what I shall call a 'background agreement' on need.  Section 4 looks at the issue of relating income to work, and tries to construct and defend an interpretation of the idea that income inequalities should compensate people for differences in their work.  I argue for a system of 'compensating differentials' based on a background agreement regarding the benefits and burdens of different kinds and amounts of work.  Section 5 considers the principles of free choice of occupation and of the right not to work, with particular reference to their role in a system of compensating differentials.  In section 6, I show how the case for a basic income follows from the conception of economic equality I have put forward.

<summary type="text">All things considered, should feminists embrace basic income?
Baker, John
As a feminist, I am committed to equality of condition between men and women, defined multidimensionally in terms of respect and recognition; resources; love, care and solidarity; power; and working and learning. I concentrate in this comment on equality in the affective system, i.e., the set of social relations that operates to meet people's needs for love, care and solidarity. A central problem for egalitarians is that recognising, valuing and supporting care work risks reinforcing the gendered division of labour, a problem of much wider remit than the issue of basic income. I argue, however, that basic income can be construed as recognising and supporting care work as a form of worthwhile but noncommodifiable activity and that this should be combined with confronting the division of labour culturally and ideologically. I cite recent empirical work on caregivers and care recipients in Ireland in support of my position.; フェミニストの一人として筆者は、尊重と承認、資源、愛・ケアと連帯、権力、仕事と学&#13;

<summary type="text">Violence for equality : lessons from Machiavelli
Baker, John
Should radical egalitarians operating in contemporary capitalist democracies use political&#13;
violence to achieve their aims? Purely consequentialist arguments provide too simple&#13;
an answer. Machiavelli's perspective is more complex because it contains both consequentialist&#13;
and non-consequentialist elements and because of its emphasis on the&#13;
strictly political costs and benefits of violence. The radically egalitarian ideal of equality&#13;
of condition is similarly complex but involves very different values and objectives.&#13;
These generate both moral and political arguments against violence. However, the&#13;
threat of counter-revolutionary violence creates a dilemma for radical egalitarians that&#13;
it is difficult to resolve.

O'Donnell, Katherine
The eighteenth-century traditions of Gaelic poetry and Trinity College Dublin’s academic focus on classical rhetoric are generally regarded as being two schools of thought that largely independent of each other. However, this article argues that Edmund Burke was one of those individuals who successfully drew from both these traditions in fashioning his own rhetorical practice. Burke had been stepped in Gaelic culture during the childhood years he spent living and being educated among his mother’s family, the Catholic Nagles of Cork’s Blackwater Valley and comparing Burke’s speeches (especially those that are considered original in thought or anomalous in the British canon) with Gaelic language poets we see how closely he drew from this tradition.  This essay focuses more on the work of the rhetoricians of Trinity College and how Burke might be seen to have engaged with them in his treatise, A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of our Ideas on the Sublime and Beautiful, while noticing that his childhood exposure to Gaelic poetry through living with the Nagles continues to haunt even this most ‘enlightened’ of texts. The article further demonstrates that the Trinity men had theories of rhetoric that might be considered as a distinct school in that they were heavily influenced by each other’s work and were in strong divergence from John Locke’s most influential concepts.

Lynch, Kathleen; Crean, Margaret; Moran, Marie
Despite the proclaimed allegiance of most countries to the principles of equality enshrined in the UN Declaration on Human Rights, inequality is a pervasive feature of the global order. Yet, it is important not to be overwhelmed by the scale of global injustice. In every country there is resistance to power and privilege, with people working at many levels to create more equal societies.&#13;
In this paper we will summarise the reasons why we came to establish Equality Studies in UCD almost 20 years ago as one way of responding to injustices (for a more detailed discussion see Lynch, 1995), and why in 2005, we further institutionalised an academic space for this work by forming a School of Social Justice, and a network of scholars from across the University who are committed to research and teaching in social justice to form the Egalitarian World Initiative (EWI) network www.ewi.ie . We begin by explaining why universities have a particular remit to challenge injustice and why it is important for them to retain that responsibility in a market-led era in higher education.

Lynch, Kathleen
Len Barton is acutely aware of the power of the academy to either enhance critical thinking or to depress it. He is a true academic, never accepting the received wisdom or perspective of any given sociological standpoint, no matter how powerful or fashionable it was at the time. He has encouraged and promoted a unique blend of professional and public sociology of education that has left a profound legacy not only in the UK but beyond.&#13;
While the neo-liberal ideology had hegemonic status for most of his professional life, Len chose to engage in a counter ideological struggle; he created new intellectual spaces in the academy where people could safely dissent from the reigning intellectual orthodoxies. He operated according to the principles of Gramscian thinking by mounting a war of position, in journals, books, teaching, conferences and research, for critical intellectuals. And he encouraged other people to do likewise.&#13;
This article explores the ways in which Len’s work inspired the establishment of the Equality Studies Centre and the School of Social Justice in UCD. It outlines the lessons learned from Len Barton about higher education and its potential as a site for critical analysis and action.

Grummell, Bernie; Devine, Dympna; Lynch, Kathleen
While there is extensive research on educational leadership and management, the selection of leaders has received comparatively little attention. This article examines how educational leadership is constructed through the selection process in the context of a qualitative study of Irish education. It highlights the tensions that can exist for selection board assessors as they try to balance increasing performativity and new managerialist demands with the traditional ethical and moral dimensions of educational leadership. Key concepts of ‘local logics’ and ‘homosociability’ frame the analysis as it is shown how assessors often select ‘safe’ candidates according to familiar qualities. This normalisation is problematic when educational leadership is faced with intense organisational and socio-cultural change. It is also problematic in gender terms, especially in higher education, where the prevailing leadership model is a masculine one. Differences between sectors are evident, with the primary and second level sectors translating criteria to the local logics of the institution and emphasising the personal qualities of candidates. The higher education sectors were more formalised in their application process, highlighting their own ‘local logics’ of strategic and professional management criteria.

<summary type="text">Neo-liberalism and marketisation : the implications for higher education
Lynch, Kathleen
The massification of education in European countries over the last 100 years has produced cultures and societies that have benefited greatly from state investment in education. However, to maintain this level of social and economic development that derives from high quality education requires continual Sate investment. With the rise of the new-right, neo-liberal agenda, there is an attempt to offload the cost of education, and indeed other public services such as housing, transport, care services etc., on to the individual. There is an increasing attempt to privatise public services, including education, so that citizens will have to buy them at market value rather than have them provided by the State. This development is recognised by scholars across a range of fields, including those working within bodies such as the World Bank (Angus, 2004; Bullen et al., 2004; Dill, 2003; Lynch and Moran, 2006; Steier, 2003; Stevenson, 1999).&#13;
Europe is no exception to this trend of neo-liberalisation. Recent OECD reports, including one on Higher Education in Ireland, (2004), concentrate strongly on the role of education in servicing the economy to the neglect of its social and developmental responsibilities. The view that education is simply another market commodity has become normalised in policy and public discourses. Schools run purely as businesses are a growing phenomenon within and without Europe, and there is an increasing expectation in several countries that schools will supplement their income from private sources, even though they are within the State sector.&#13;
In this paper, I present both a critique of the neo-liberal model of marketised education and a challenge to academics to work as public intellectuals both individually and with civil society organisations to develop a counter-hegemonic discourse to neo-liberalism for higher education.

<summary type="text">Markets, schools and the convertibility of economic capital : the complex dynamics of class choice
Lynch, Kathleen; Moran, Marie
While economic capital is not synonymous with cultural, social or symbolic capital in either its constitutional or organisational form, it nevertheless remains the more flexible and convertible form of capital. The convertibility of economic capital has particular resonance within ‘Celtic Tiger’ Ireland. The State’s reluctance to fully endorse an internal market between schools has resulted in middle class parents using their private wealth to create an educational market outside State control in the private sector to help secure the class futures of their children.&#13;
Using data from recent studies of second-level education in Republic of Ireland, and data compiled on the newly emerging ‘grind’ schools (businesses selling educational programmes on a purely commercial basis outside the control of the Department of Education and Science), we outline how the availability of economic capital allows well-off middle class parents to choose fee-paying schooling, or to opt out of the formal school sector entirely to employ market solutions to their class ambitions. The data also show that schools are not passive actors in the class game; they actively collude in the class project to their own survival advantage.Focusing too much on the dynamics of parental choice between schools leads to a neglect of the markets in education being created outside of the school system: the ‘choice’ that exists is no longer simply between schools, but also between schools and private businesses. Focus on parental choice also forecloses debate about the central roles that schools themselves play in perpetuating class inequality.

<summary type="text">Love labour as a distinct and non-commodifiable form of care labour
Lynch, Kathleen
This paper examines the nature of love labouring and explores how it can be distinguished from other forms of care work. It provides a three fold taxonomy for analysing other-centred work, distinguishing between work required to maintain primary care relations (love labour), secondary care relations (general care work) and tertiary care relations (solidarity work). A central theme of the paper is that primary care relations are not sustainable over time without love labour; that the realization of love, as opposed to the declaration of love, requires work. Drawing on a wide range of theoretical and empirical sources, including a study of caring undertaken by the author, the paper argues that there is mutuality, commitment, trust and responsibility at the heart of love labouring that makes it distinct from general care work and solidarity work. It sets out reasons why it is not possible to commodify the feelings, intentions and commitments of love labourers to supply them on a paid basis.

<summary type="text">Affective inequalities : challenging (re)distributive, recognition and representational models of social justice
Lynch, Kathleen
This paper examines the significance of care relations for the pursuit of equality&#13;
and social justice in society. It highlights the importance of affective equality for&#13;
producing a society governed by principles of deep egalitarianism and equality of&#13;
condition. This paper builds on research with my colleagues in Equality Studies&#13;
on the theory of equality (Baker, Lynch, Cantillon and Walsh, 2004, 2009) and on&#13;
the subject of affective equality in particular (Lynch, Baker and Lyons, 2009). It&#13;
begins by acknowledging the role of feminist scholars in opening up the affective&#13;
domain to research. It then briefly defines affective equality and inequality going&#13;
on to outline the core assumptions underpinning affective egalitarian thinking.&#13;
From there, it explores the neglect of affective relations in egalitarian theory and&#13;
outlines a new framework for egalitarian thinking, one that takes account of&#13;
affective relations and highlights their inter-relationship with other social systems.&#13;
This is followed by a discussion of the implications of relationality at the heart of&#13;
affective equality and a short comment on the links between affective relations,&#13;
ethics and politics. The paper concludes with some comments on why social scientific and political thought needs to change to take account of the affective&#13;
and the normative in social life.

<summary type="text">Affective equality : who cares?
Lynch, Kathleen
Human beings are not just economic actors, devoid of relationality; rather, they are interdependent and dependent with a deep capacity for moral feeling and attaching. The presumption that people are mere units of labour, movable from one country to another as production requires, is therefore an institutionalised form of affective injustice. As love, care and solidarity involve work, affective inequalities also occur when the burdens and benefits of these forms of work are unequally distributed. Affective inequality is an acutely gendered problem given the moral imperative on women to care, and an acute problem for all of humanity given that vulnerability and inter/dependency is endemic to the human condition.

Gibbons, Ann
This paper traces the origin, development and mobilisation of the farming lobby in 1960s Ireland.  It constitutes part of the oral history of farming in Ireland and illustrates the early history of the Irish Farmers’ Association (IFA) from a time when there were few structures  up until the 1980s when it stood as one of the most important and influential organisations in the country. Through personal experiences and a number of documented contemporary sources, this paper captures the lives of men and women who participated at this pivotal time.
