Journeys of Expressions VI: Diaspora community festivals, cultural events
and tourism

4-6 October 2007, York, United Kingdom

Organised by: Centre for Tourism and Cultural Change, Leeds Metropolitan
University

Journeys of Expression VI will bring together researchers who share
interests in diaspora community cultures as expressed, translated and
consumed through festivals and cultural events. The conference
encourages contributions from contrasting but related theoretical and
conceptual approaches from Social Science and Humanities disciplinary
perspectives. The conference will also attract researchers from the
fields of tourism and festival studies.

The enforced, encouraged or voluntary movement, migration and dispersion
of people over centuries and in recent years is reflected in the family
backgrounds, life histories and cultural practices of communities in
many countries, regions and cities worldwide. Mobilities associated with
the processes of globalisation are demonstrably, if unevenly
contributing to an acceleration of migration for more or less permanent,
official and legal settlement of people beyond their 'homelands'.

In many cases, diaspora communities have been subject to hostility and
discrimination in their adopted countries and some remain relatively
impoverished, marginalised and excluded from 'mainstream' society.
Others, in contrast have been more socially and economically successful
and have either retained distinct diaspora community identities or have
become more integrated with other communities over time.

Tourism has also grown substantially and unevenly in recent years, with
tourists increasingly encouraged to attend and participate in 'exotic'
and 'characteristically authentic' displays of community life in
destinations visited. Such tourism typically features the packaging,
promotion and consumption of diaspora community neighbourhoods, food and
shopping and importantly festivals and cultural events.

The relationships between diaspora communities, festivity, cultural
events and tourism are therefore of considerable interest to academic
researchers, as well as for arts, social, cultural and tourism policy
makers and practitioners in many countries.

Theoretical issues and themes to be explored at this conference include:

* Defining and conceptualising diasporas in connection with
festivals and cultural events;

* Histories of diaspora communities' mobilities and the
transformation and adaptation of festivity and cultural events to new
community circumstances and settings;

* Relationships between diaspora communities and the 'homeland'
and expressions of collective memory through festivals and cultural
events;

* The distribution and circulation of globalised diaspora festival
forms - e.g. carnival, mela, Irish, Chinese, Jewish - religious and
secular, established, emerging and contested;

* The role of diaspora festivals and cultural events in policies
and programmes to promote community cohesion, crime reduction and
anti-racism;

* Festivals, cultural events and the identities of diaspora
community members - inter-generational issues;

* Festivals, cultural events and the multi- (inter-) cultural
city;

* Settings and spaces for diaspora festivals and cultural events;

* Issues surrounding new and recently introduced diaspora
community festivals and cultural events;

* Performing diaspora community arts through festivals;

* Diaspora tourism markets.

In the tradition of the Journeys of Expressions conference series, we
wish to encourage an interdisciplinary debate on the suggested themes
and welcome paper proposals from academics from various disciplinary
backgrounds including: tourism studies, festival studies, sociology,
anthropology, cultural studies, cultural geography, politics, etc. If
you wish to submit a paper proposal, please send a 300-word abstract
with full address and institutional affiliation details as an electronic
file to Dr. Philip Long (p.e.long[at]leedsmet.ac.uk). The deadline for the
reception of abstracts is 16 April 2007. Please find regularly updated
information regarding this conference, registration procedures and (at a
later stage) a programme at our website www.tourism-culture.com.

Dear Michael,
I wrote the introduction for a book that I believe will interest
your conference attendees. It is an edited volume of letters from the
Prendergast family of Milltown, Co. Kerry, to their Boston family,
published in November by Univ. of Massachusetts Press. Will you be
having a book table so I can inform the press to send copies to you?
all the best,

Dymphna

It's almost Christmas eve ... Kevin Danaher's 'The Year in Ireland: Irish
Calendar Customs' (1972, but my copy is Mercier Press/Irish Books and Media,
new edition, 274pp, 2001) has an account of Christmas, pp. 233-64, with
Christmas Eve receiving 3 pages or so.

'Christmas Eve was observed as a fast day. Many people took no food at all
until the main meal, which consisted traditionally of stockfish, such as
hake, cod or ling, with white sauce or potatoes.' (p.239)

The next paragraph notes that the fast was shortlived and the Christmas meal
- cake, tea, punch and other drinks, with sweets and apples for children -
began well before midnight.

Various Irish words are used in the overall account, but there is no mention
of a name such as you would like to know, and there is no mention of
sandwiches.

Danaher notes that 'The Advent fast was abolished in 1917' (p.267).

I hope that's helpful.

Thanks, Bryan. I will look out for that book when I am in Dublin. I know
a lot more now about Christmas Eve in Ireland, but the mystery remains
about oiche na ceapairi, the night of the sandwiches. However, I must
not forget that the original reference was in a Christmas cracker.
Perhaps whoever makes up the mottos was bored with the usual ones and
simply made this up!

Christmas Greetings from President McAleese=20

http://www.president.ie/


Christmas is a time set apart from all others, a time for family, =
friends,
reunions, gifts and special greetings and so, to Ireland's growing =
family at
home and abroad, and to all her great friends throughout the world, I =
send
the warmest of Christmas good wishes.

In these days, our minds go back to the baby born in Bethlehem. He =
taught us
that humankind would only flourish in love and he asked each of us to be
bringers of love into the lives of those around us. Two thousand years =
on
and we have seen, many times over, the awful price we pay for giving in =
to
hatred or simply neglecting one another. Conflict, poverty and disease =
are
ravaging millions of lives this very day. The Irish play a noble role in =
the
international community's response to that suffering.

Ireland has a good story to tell of its own successful efforts to end
generations of poverty and of conflict. The patient work of so many
peacemakers throughout Ireland is bearing fruit at last. I hope that we =
will
soon see the fresh start that the people of Northern Ireland have longed =
for
and earned so painfully. The two jurisdictions which share this island =
have
so much untapped potential just waiting to be revealed by peace and
partnership. Let us hope that the waiting will soon be over.

Among the gifts we can share with one another this Christmas is the gift =
of
care on our roads. Our care costs us nothing. Our carelessness costs =
others
everything, their lives, their health, their happiness. So I ask all of =
us,
young and old, to take seriously our personal responsibility for road
safety. Keep the crying out of Christmas.

And to those who are feeling sad this Christmas time whether through =
loss,
or illness, or absence, or worry, I pray you will find reason for joy =
and
hope in the consolation and support offered by friends, family or =
community.

To all the boys and girls who have worked hard at being good to impress
Santa Claus I say well done and to all those who have worked hard to =
make
our country strong and welcoming, prosperous and caring I say a =
heartfelt
thank you. You keep the Christmas spirit going all year round and, in
millions of acts of generosity, you let us see the power of love.

Best wishes to one and all for a Happy Christmas, and a truly peaceful,
fulfilling New Year.

A happy new year to everyone, and a hopeful one...

I deliberately let things go quiet over the holiday period. We used the
time to solve some problems...

Regular users of our web site www.irishdiaspora.net will know that it has
not been well for some months. Without going into details, the background
problems had to do with resources, expertise and the fact that everything
was done on the cheap...

Last month Dr. Stephen Sobol, of The Institute of Communications Studies,
University of Leeds, offered to take irishdiaspora.net into his university
network, where the same software is already in place, but in a better
resourced, more substantial form.

The new set up has allowed me to repair and restore the archive of the Irish
Diaspora list, which is - once again - complete, and working as it should.

I have set up web forwarding so that, if you click on
www.irishdiaspora.net
you get through to the web site. It looks and feels the same - it just
works better.

Since we are now hosted by a university we have had to loose our software
links to the Amazon databases. I will have a little think about what to do
about that - because I found them a useful way of learning about forthcoming
publications. And it was always good to see books by IR-D members popping
up there.

Our thanks to Dr. Stephen Sobol, The Institute of Communications Studies,
University of Leeds. He, and the university, came forward with a solution
at a time of crisis. And we are grateful.

Over recent months the spam problem became horrendous again...

If you want a round-up of discussion, there was a recent summary by Northern
Light

http://www.nlresearch.com/imarketpage.php?pid=237

http://www.centerformarketintelligence.com/analystviews/20061221-WeeklyRepor
t.htm

Running an old-fashioned email list, like IR-D, has become increasingly
difficult. As well as being the unhappy recipients and victims of spam we
are the victims of various anti-spam devices. For example, I still do not
know if IR-D messages were getting through to members with yahoo.com email
addresses. I do know that I was glad, over the quiet holiday, to not
receive any more yahoo.com error messages.

Let us see if the start again.

Anyone who wants an invitation to have a gmail web email address should
contact me. Gmail works well and has excellent spam trapping systems.

The archive of the IR-D list, which - of course - works through email, was -
of course - affected by spam. We have cleaned out and put extra safeguards
in place. I have also put extra hurdles in place at Jiscmail - these
inconvenience only me. But should ensure that no nasties or naughties get
through...

Right... On with the song...

Rebels' Perspectives of the Legacy of Past Violence and of the Current Peace
in Post-Agreement Northern Ireland: An Interpretative Phenomenological
Analysis

Authors: Burgess, Mark1; Ferguson, Neil2; Hollywood, Ian2

Source: Political Psychology, Volume 28, Number 1, February 2007, pp.
69-88(20)

Publisher: Blackwell Publishing

Abstract:
Former members of the Irish Republican Army (IRA) and organizers of peaceful
civil rights organizations were interviewed to assess how these individuals
interpreted the current social conditions in Post-Agreement Northern
Ireland. Contrary to the intercommunity ideals of the Good Friday Agreement,
our results suggest that people continue to exist in a society where
political power is based on the division of communities, where ordinary
people are not motivated to contribute to politics and where everyday life
is fundamentally affected by the agreements of strongly opposed politicians.
Analysis of transcripts revealed that people lived in a climate that
presented violence as inappropriate yet effective. To that end, members of
the community were negotiating a period of social psychological conflict and
were described as living in a situation of unease rather than peace.
Participants warned that conditions appear to be creating tensions that
could lead to future violence.

Australian and Commonwealth republicanism

727-737(11)

Publisher: Routledge, part of the Taylor & Francis Group

Abstract:
When republics, beginning with India in 1949, were first admitted to =
the
Commonwealth of Nations, Australia remained strongly attached to the =
Crown
and the King's (later the Queen's) role as Head of the Commonwealth. =
Indeed,
many Australians had seen a shared Crown as axiomatic, and a symbol of
Commonwealth unity. Despite bursts of republicanism in Australia during =
the
19th and 20th centuries, it was not until the 1990s that a republic =
appeared
likely. One historic driver of anti-British Australian republicanism has
been the Irish heritage of many Australians. As republicanism grew, it =
was
important that Australia could remain in the Commonwealth as a republic. =
The
past decade has seen a stronger sentiment in Australia than in the other

national independence
and identity require the symbol of a home-grown head of state, rather =
than
one seen as British. The growth of republicanism in such countries, and =
in
Britain itself, would be likely to encourage republicanism in Australia.
Australia's republican majority has been frustrated by its inability to
agree on a model for parliamentary selection or direct election of the
president. No Commonwealth country provides a model which Australians =
find
compelling.

Abstract

This essay will examine, through a Kentucky case study, the process =
whereby
states, county-level localities, and individuals undertook for =
themselves
the responsibility for internal improvements, especially the =
construction of
comprehensive road networks in the nineteenth century. Before the =
Kentucky
legislature authorized state-funded road construction in the twentieth
century, the state's best roads were a few toll turnpikes. Following =
other
eastern states, Kentucky approved turnpike construction charters and
subscribed to turnpike stock to underwrite construction. State statutes,
based upon directives from trained engineers hired by the Board of =
Internal
Improvement, required that turnpike construction follow complex =
procedures.
A change in the state constitution in 1850 forced the state to withdraw =
from
turnpike road investment and road construction oversight and finance
devolved to counties and private investors. Local county road networks =
were
largely the product of neighborhood turnpike companies chartered by the
state. Primary documents record the local road-building process for a
five-mile turnpike in a Bourbon County. With little direction or =
assistance
from state engineers, the neighborhood residents, led by farmer John W.
Jones, surveyed a route, arranged for right-of-way access through =
adjacent
farms, hired Irish turnpike construction crews, built a tollhouse, and
collected tolls. Formal state law and engineering directives became
attenuated as amateur turnpike builders constructed a simplified version =
of
the state's ideal road.

Abstract

The role of community agency in the rural community and economic =
development
processes needs to be better understood in America and other advanced,
industrialized nations. Community agency is vital to protecting, =
retaining,
and maintaining rural communities. A comparative study was designed to
explore the role of community agency in contributing to local well-being =
in
Ireland and America. This role was evaluated through the use of a =
multiple
method framework based on extensive key informant interviews, focus =
groups,
and analysis of household survey data.

Overall, the findings indicate social interaction was the most important
explanation of community agency, followed by community attachment, =
social
ties/networks, and sociodemographics. Important differences were noted
between Irish and Pennsylvania respondents. In both nations, regression
models indicated social interaction was the most important factor =
associated
with community agency. Applied policy implications of these findings are
advanced.
