When women are erased from history, what are we left with? Between 1912 and 1922, Ireland experienced sweeping social and political change, including the Easter Rising, World War I, the Irish Civil War, the fight for Irish women's suffrage, the founding of the Abbey Theatre, and the passage of the Home Rule Bill. In preparation for the centennial of this epic decade, the Irish government formed a group of experts to oversee the ways in which the country would remember this monumental time. Unfortunately, the group was formed with no attempt at gender balance. Women and the Decade of Commemorations, edited by Oona Frawley, highlights not only the responsibilities of Irish women, past and present, but it also privileges women's scholarship in an attempt to redress what has been a long-standing imbalance. For example, contributors note the role of the Waking the Feminists movement, which was ignited when, in 2016, the Abbey Theater released its male-dominated centenary program. They also discuss the importance of addressing missing history and curating memory to correct the historical record when it comes to remembering revolution. Together, the essays in Women and the Decade of Commemorations consider the impact of women's unseen, unsung work, which has been critically important in shaping Ireland, a country that continues to struggle with honoring the full role of women today.

Imperial Spaces - Placing the Irish and Scots in Colonial Australia (Hardcover): Lindsay Proudfoot, Dianne Hall Imperial Spaces - Placing the Irish and Scots in Colonial Australia (Hardcover)

Imperial spaces takes two of the most influential minority groups of white settlers in the British Empire - the Irish and the Scots - and explores how they imagined themselves within the landscapes of its farthest reaches, the Australian colonies of Victoria and New South Wales. Using letters and diaries as well as records of collective activities such as committee meetings, parades and dinners, the book examines how the Irish and Scots built new identities as settlers in the unknown spaces of Empire. Utilizing critical geographical theories of 'place' as the site of memory and agency, it considers how Irish and Scots settlers grounded their sense of belonging in the imagined landscapes of south-east Australia. Imperial spaces is relevant to academics and students interested in the history and geography of the British Empire, Australia, Ireland and Scotland. -- .

A Review of Ethical Issue Considerations in the Information Systems Research Literature (Paperback): David Paradice, David... A Review of Ethical Issue Considerations in the Information Systems Research Literature (Paperback)

A Review of Ethical Issue Considerations in the Information Systems Research Literature summarizes the treatment of ethical considerations that have been made by information systems researchers. When examined in this fashion, one finds that information systems research over the years that incorporates an ethical perspective has transitioned from a focus on codes of ethics and general notions of behavior to more sophisticated models of piracy, privacy, and security. There has been a steady focus on theory development over the last ten years, as well as constant scrutiny on the obligations of information system researchers to both the subjects of studies and the consumers of the research results. The monograph begins with a brief introduction and review of major ethical theories. This is followed by the category summaries, which are listed in alphabetical order to enable a reader to jump to a specific topic. The last sections address future research opportunities and the conclusions drawn.

A lingering love for her dead husband leaves Korey Westerfield unprepared to recognize a mutual attraction when she meets charming Marc Bradberry. Marc is instantly smitten. He nurtures a platonic friendship and hides his deeper feelings the same way he hides a tormenting secret: his loveless marriage to a comatose wife. He tries yet fails to reveal his duplicity and compromises the innocence of friendship in a night of passion. With Marc, Korey finds renewed happiness until she discovers his deception. She flees her native Tennessee for New Mexico. There, Korey meets Jim Yellowhawk, a handsome rancher whose mission is that of making Korey forget Marc. Upon the death of his wife, Marc is free to pursue the woman who haunts his dreams. He follows a thin thread of clues as he searches for Korey among red mesas in the high desert. But when he finds her, a year has passed, and Korey is not at all sure she wants him back in her life. The road to reconciliation is as rocky as the washed-out trails he has traversed to find her.
