Life Histories and Social Change open data collection
Archive of publicly available audio clips and text excerpts from the larger collection Life Histories and Social Change. Life Histories and Social Change is a collection of qualitative life story interviews with three cohorts of Irish citizens, each of which reached adulthood in the crucial decades of the 1950s (an era of socio-economic decline), the 1970s (an era of initial 'modernisation') and in the 1990s (the 'Celtic Tiger' boom). The research was funded by the Irish Research Council and a total of 113 life history interviews were conducted by researchers from Maynooth University between 2006 and 2008.
This sub-collection of openly available data is particularly suitable for teaching, and is a rich resource of primary research data including first hand accounts of significant historical events and periods, and aspects of Irish society both past and present. This archive is also a useful resource for teaching qualitative social science research methods.
