| Résumé : |
The 1950s and 1960s were a transformative phase in modern Irish history. In these years, a conservative society dominated by the Catholic Church, and a state which was inward-looking and distrustful of novelty, gradually opened up to fresh ideas. This book considers this change and explores how the intellectual movement Tuairim ('opinion' in Irish), was at the vanguard of the challenge to orthodoxy and conservatism. Tuairim contributed to debates on issues as diverse as Northern Ireland, the economy, politics, education, childcare and censorship. The society established branches throughout Ireland, including Belfast, and in London. It occupied a unique position within contemporary debates on Ireland's present and future Contents: Tuairim and the intellectual climate in Ireland Representation and reform: Tuairim, the government and the Oireachtas North and south: Tuairim and a divided island Discourse and discord: Tuairim's challenge to the conservative consensus on education and childcare Sense and censorship: Tuairim and cultural conservatism |
