Odrán de Bhaldraithe is a Belfast-based author, who has written on colonialism, culture, and socialist republicanism. His book Neglect in the North of Ireland examines systemic under-investment in health, housing, and politics, under British rule.
Is é an iomáint “cluiche náisiúnta” na hÉireann, ach i go leor ceantar ní imrítear é ach go hannamh. Maíonn Odrán de Bhaldraithe nach dtiocfaidh fíor-uile-Éireannachas ar an gcluiche go dtí go dtuigtear é mar thraidisiún beo, seachas mar shiamsaíocht teilifíse.
Hurling is Ireland's "national game", yet in many parts of the country it is barely played. Odrán de Bhaldraithe argues that the sport will only become truly All-Ireland when it is understood as a living tradition, not a TV spectacle.
