The ARINS project is launching a new quarterly seminar series with papers related to publications in Irish Studies in International Affairs.

Irish Studies in International Affairs has been published since 1979 as the leading Irish-based, peer-reviewed, journal in the discipline, with an increasing international reputation and circulation.  Each issue includes contributions on a special theme and other original articles related to Ireland and international affairs broadly defined, to include issues such as development aid, conflict resolution, trade and human rights.

Philip McGuinness will present at this first seminar, on Communal nip and tuck: unionism and nationalism in recent elections.  Philip is an independent scholar and former lecturer in computer science at Dundalk Institute of Technology.  He gained both his MPhil. and PhD from Queen's.

This event is hosted in collaboration with the Mitchell Institute and is chaired by Mitchell Institute Fellow: Religion, Arts and Peacebuilding, Professor John Garry (QUB).
