“…Figures in the UK media varied and conflicted, but in January 2017 the DfA stated that 2016 NI applications saw a 26.5 per cent rise over the 2015 figures, whilst applications from Britain increased by 40.6 per cent in the same period (DfA, 2017a, b, c). This trend continued throughout 2017(DfA, 2017a, b, c, 2018. In NI (which had returned a majority 'remain' vote in the referendum) people who might not have traditionally opted to apply for Irish citizenship submitted applications (de Mars et al, 2018;Wood & Gilmartin, 2018).…”

Ireland is a country with a generous citizenship offering but restricted external voting rights. The first (or emigrant) generation lose the right to vote eighteen months after departure; other non-resident citizens, including those in Northern Ireland (NI) are currently ineligible to vote. In November 2020 the Irish Government committed to holding a referendum which if passed, would give all Irish citizens, resident and non-resident the right to vote in Presidential elections. This chapter, based on interviews with people born in the UK and Northern Ireland who acquired Irish passports following the UK’s referendum to leave the European Union considers the topic of Irish external voting through the lens of these new passport holders, exploring their relationship to political participation in the Republic of Ireland.

“…But since the Brexit referendum, questions of citizenship have become more pressing for more people; There has been a growing realization that different passports carry distinct benefits. When talking about the citizenship of the European Union, derived from being a citizen of one of the European Union member states of the European Union, and the most prominent of these advantages is freedom of movement and work throughout the European Union 13 . The right to citizenship has been recognized in the constitutions and laws of all States of the world and has been recognized by international declarations and conventions as the basis for citizens' enjoyment of their rights and duties under their right to citizenship.…”

تعد فكرة المواطنة من الأفكار السياسية والقانونية القديمة التي طالما شغلت حيّزاً واسعاً من التفكير لدى معظم دول العالم، وذلك لارتباط حق المواطنة بهوية الإنسان ومرجعيته الحضارية على اختلاف أصوله وأعراقه، والمواطنة هي المساواة بين المواطنين بصرف النّظر عن الصّبغات الدينيّة أو المذهبيّة أو القبليّة أو العرقيّة أو الجنسيّة. سعت الدول إلى تكريس هذا الحق من خلال الاتفاقيات الدولية، وتم التأكيد عليه من خلال دساتير الدول وأنظمتها الأساسية وقوانينها ووسائل إعلامها، وذلك لزيادة ارتباط الأفراد المنتسبين إلى الدولة بهويتهم الوطنية، ولمنح هؤلاء الأفراد جميع حقوقهم المنصوص عليها في اتفاقيات دولية أو الدساتير أو القوانين الداخلية كونهم عنصر مهم من عناصر الدولة. وتبقى المواطنة بمفهومها إطاراً يستوعب الجميع، فهذا الحق يحافظ على حقوق الأقلية والأكثرية في نطاق مفهوم المواطنة الجامعة، فالمواطن له جميع الحقوق وعليه جميع الواجبات، والمواطنة الحقيقية لا تتجاهل حقائق التركيبة الثقافيّة والاجتماعيّة والسياسيّة في الوطن. جرى التأكيد على الحقوق التي تكرس الحق في المواطنة في الإعلان العالمي لحقوق الإنسان والاتفاقيات الدولية الخاصة بحقوق الإنسان، وذلك لأهميته البالغة لكل فرد في مجتمعه، وتم التأكيد على تكريس هذا الحق في دساتير الدول ومنها النظام الأساسي للدولة في سلطنة عمان.

“…The EU's common agricultural policy had the biggest impact on Northern Ireland within the UK. Another potential hit to the Northern Ireland economy was the 2015 agreement within the Stormont Executive to lower the corporate tax to 12.5 percent to make it more competitive with the Irish Republic (de Mars et al 2018).…”

Walking the Gendered Tightrope

Walking the Gendered Tightrope analyzes the gendered expectations for women in high offices through the examples of British Prime Minister Theresa May and U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Even at their highest positions, and while completing their greatest achievements, both May and Pelosi faced gendered critiques and intraparty challenges to their leadership. While other books have analyzed the barriers to higher office that women face, this book reveals how women in positions of power are still forced to balance feminine stereotypes with the perception of power as masculine in order to prove their legitimacy. By examining intraparty dynamics, this book offers a unique comparison between a majoritarian presidential and Westminster parliamentary system. While their parties promoted Pelosi and May to highlight their progressive values, both women faced continually gendered critiques about their abilities to lead their caucuses on difficult policy issues, such as the Affordable Care Act and two Trump impeachment votes for Nancy Pelosi, or finishing Brexit for Theresa May. Grounded in the legislative literature from the United States and Britain, as well as historical accounts and personal interviews, Walking the Gendered Tightrope contributes to the fields of gender and politics, legislative studies, American politics, and British politics.
