Exploring transnational approaches to key themes of Irish scholarship - diaspora, nationalism, political violence, religious networks, human rights. International speakers, experts on transnational methodologies, will engage with non-Irish topics. The conference aims to cover a wide scope, with panels from late-medieval/early modern history to contemporary Ireland. It will be interdisciplinary in a very real sense and includes colleagues and graduate students from NUI Galway from different disciplines like History, English, French, and from the schools of Law, Political Science and Sociology, and the Huston Film School.
