This book explores how Ireland’s community media outlets reflect and shape identity at the local level. While aspects of its culture date back centuries, the nation-state of Ireland is less than one hundred years old. Because of this and other elements of the island’s history, Irish identity is a contested topic and the island is a place where culture, identity and geography are tightly intertwined. By addressing how community media serve as agents for community building, the book examines how they in turn influence the way individuals connect with their communities.

A collection covering a wide variety of media in Ireland, including broadcasting, film, popular music, radio, and popular culture.

Watson (sociology, U. College, Dublin) argues that the Irish language plays an important role in national identity in Ireland, and shows how changes in broadcasting in the country coincide with changes in national identity. He begins with radio in the 1920s, and proceeds through the founding of an Irish-language television station in 1996 to the present. Distributed in the US by ISBS.
