INDUSTRIAL management ,INTERNATIONAL trade ,REGIONAL economics ,LARCENY ,BUSINESS - Abstract
This paper suggests significant processes associated with regional industrial change. Particular emphasis is given to the sensitivity of an open regional economy to shifts in external trade relationships and the ability of management to assess and adapt to the changing forces influencing theft industries. The case study of Northern Ireland between 1950 and 1968 attempts to explain the transition followed by the leading older industries and why certain alternative paths for regional transition were followed. A recurrent theme is the crucial role played by the regional government. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

16. Outward-looking Policies and Industrialization in a Small Economy: Some Notes on the Irish Case.

INDUSTRIALIZATION ,INTERNATIONAL relations - Abstract
From the Second World War until the late 1950s the literature on international economic relations contained many arguments for protection and for limited participation in the international division of labor and the world marketplace. With some exceptions, the economic policies of nation-states, both developed and developing, were oriented toward some—but limited—participation in the world economy. In recent years, arguments against "inward-looking" policies have appeared more frequently in the literature, and a body of analysis has emerged which strongly makes the case for "outward-looking" policies. The trend of economic policies has also been to take on a more outward-looking character. The case against inward-looking policies has been partly that inefficiencies in resource allocation occur for nations that shield their economic activity from the competition of international markets. The limits to industrialization processes relying solely for their stimuli on the possibilities of an expanding domestic market have also been more clearly understood, and it is suggested that a larger participation by nation-states in the world economy will give them a more efficient allocation of resources and improved prospects for increasing productivity and sustaining economic growth over time. This paper adds another case study—that of Ireland—to the increasing body of evidence on the consequences of inward- and outward-looking policies for national economic performance. The period covered is 1950-66. A crisis in Irish economic policy occurred in 1956 and, as a result, there is a sharp contrast between economic policies followed in the pre- and post-1958 periods. Beginning in the early 1930s until 1958, Irish economic policies had given a lot of weight to tariff protection and limiting the participation of foreign firms, investors, and personnel in Irish agriculture and industry. The reversal of view was sharp in the fifties as incentives were... [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents a report on Henry George's Remedies for Britain's Land Problems. When Henry George sailed for Great Britain in 1881, no one could have prophesied the far reaching consequences of his act. Within two yean both he and his book "Progress and Poverty," were to become household words in Great Britain. It is also true that George's arrest by the Irish constabulary in August, 1882, while he was observing conditions in the west of Ireland, and the questions subsequently asked in the House of Commons about this affair, gave him a publicity far beyond the effect of his book or speeches at this date. In his speeches George presented two main points: The social and economic condition of the British working man, and the remedy for his ills. In defining George's message to the British the author may leave out of consideration for the present the first of these points. Most British papers acknowledged the plight of the working man in the Eighteen Eighties; what George contributed in this respect was a description of conditions in unusually specific and moving terms.

The article presents information about various political and social developments in the U.S. Amidst general enthusiasm, England grants a constitution and dominion status to Malta. The reason may be that Malta, though even more ancient than Ireland, having been under British rule only since 1814, has not had time to be disorderly. John R. Thompson of Chicago, the owner of a string of restaurants which bear his name, has inserted an advertisement in the Chicago papers offering one thousand dollars to anyone who will give him one good reason for the private manufacture of revolvers in the U.S. and for the use of the mails by the manufacturers.

The article presents various socio-political developments from the world. The passage of the Irish Home-Rule Bill in the British House of Commons and its defeat in the Lords leave English politics and society in an extremely interesting condition for the foreign observer. Some of the papers, mainly those of New Orleans have aroused to the disgrace brought on their portion of the Union by the growing practice of lynching Negroes. In truth, the very condition of public feeling which makes lynching possible, makes the conviction of Negroes in the courts for all lynchable offences absolutely certain.

INCOME inequality ,MULTIPLIERS (Mathematical analysis) ,CAPITAL - Abstract
This paper presents the results of applying the mortality multiplier approach to estate duty statistics in order to estimate the size distribution of personal wealth in the Republic of Ireland. It commences with an examination of the limitations of the estate duty statistics, a discussion of the problems involved in collecting the data, and a short consideration of the mortality multipliers used. Estimates are presented for the size distribution of personal wealth, and the distribution of wealth between age groups. Some comparisons are given with wealth in Northern Ireland, Great Britain and the U.S.A. Estimates of the components of personal capital were not found possible. Finally, preliminary estimates are made for the distribution of wealth among married and single persons, in order to provide the basis for an analysis of wealth possessed by wealth-owning units (defined as single males, single females and married couples). By making extreme assumptions, upper and lower limits are placed on the actual pattern of the size distribution of wealth by wealth-owning units. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article reports that the sixth international conference on operation research was held in August 1972 on the campus of Dublin's sixteenth century Trinity College in the Republic of Ireland. An analysis of feedback reports circulated at the conference afforded deep satisfaction to the Irish committee led by Fred Ridgeway, which had striven hard to make the international meeting a memorable occasion. Four simultaneous streams characterized the conference. The mainstream was made up of three highlight papers, the "statement of the problem" by the chairman of each of the eight workshop groups, two papers read by representatives of Allied organizations, eight state-of-the-art sessions consisting of a central paper and two discussants, and finally the eight reports of the workshop groups. A second stream consisted of the twenty-eight national contributions. A third stream was comprised of the meeting of the individual workshops while the fourth stream was devoted to the discussion forum.

The document in its several parts, together with the letter of transmission, was published by the British Government in the form of a White Paper from which the following text is taken. It is worth noting the fact that the treaty was drafted prior to June 15, 1920, and that it has not since, as far as is known, been ratified.

The article presents some political updates. It highlights the proposal given by politician Lloyd George regarding Irish rights. There are some legitimate criticisms of the British proposals expressed or implied in Ireland's President Eamon de Valera's letter to George. This letter is a model state document in temper, in moderation of language and in frankness. It shows that the British proposals are obviously devised to keep Irish strength behind the British Empire. For instance, voluntary recruiting for the Irish regiments, which have so long and so gallantly served Great Britain in all parts of the world, is expressly to be permitted.

The article presents some political updates as of May 30, 1867. One of the updates highlights that an Irishman who knows both sides of the Atlantic has been writing to the Irish papers, drawing awful pictures of the demoralization of the Irish people through the importation by the Fenian emissaries of American ideas into Ireland about marriage, social equality, the clergy, land tenures, and other social issues. Another update says that just before the Connecticut election, the Republican Convention of the Fourth District nominated politician P.T. Barnum. However, Barnum ran behind his ticket, he was not elected.

The article focuses on political and social conditions around the world. The proposal to make the President ineligible for re-election has a good deal to recommend it in the U.S., but the balance of argument is undoubtedly against it. In its favor there is the obvious consideration that it would prevent that incessant bidding for popularity, that persistent conversion of the administration into an electioneering machine, which has been the curse of politics for nearly half a century. Many of the English papers are trying to persuade the public that statesman John Bright has irretrievably damaged his cause by his scheme for the regeneration of Ireland, coupled with his more recent allusion to the possibility of hastening the triumph of the reform movement in England by a display of physical force on the part of the working classes.

The new agitation of the land question in England and Ireland, and especially in Ireland is to begin with the publication of a volume of essays of the kind so common of late in England in the treatment of various political and social questions, and of which the "Essays and Reviews" furnished the model.

The article presents social news, from around the world. The Byron scandal may be said to constitute the leading topic of the day, and every morning the Atlantic Cable, as well as the U.S. papers, furnishes a fresh contribution to the controversy. The Byron family has taken the field through their solicitors; but the telegraphic report of what they say is by no means clear. The only thing certain about it is that they feel scandalized and outraged by the revelation, and consider it, amongst other things, a breach of confidence. The state of things in Ireland grows highly interesting. The disestablishment of the Church has, as was expected, been succeeded by a renewed, and what promises to be a very vigorous, agitation about the land tenures; and this agitation, derives a good deal of its power from what may be called dropping murders of landlords occurring all over the country, even in districts in which such murders have been hitherto unknown; and it has been stimulated, too, by some very cruel evictions in a district in which this species of abuse of power has been hitherto rarely, if ever, practiced.

This is, perhaps, all the more remarkable since the outstanding impression is one of the discontinuities in Irish labor history. Print and paper are atrocious, but as a perceptive survey, the volume may still be worth the money.

Eamon de Valera was a frequent visitor in the office of "The Nation" when he first came to the United States in 1919 to plead the cause of the Irish Republic. In those dark days of the struggling republic "The Nation" made its pages a forum for uncensored discussion of Ireland's wrongs. But "The Nation" came closest to Ireland in 1920-21, in the darkest days of the Black and Tans, when it proposed the formation of the American Committee of One Hundred for the investigation of atrocities in Ireland. In 1920 when William J.M.A. Maloney had his heart aflame with a fire that inspired everyone. The United States, he said, could force England to change its policy. But no paper in the United States that could command respect would dare to take the lead—except "The Nation."

The article presents the discussion of a possible settlement of the Irish problem along Dominion lines appeared in The Round Table (London) for September. Since the last number of The Round Table was published, an Irish Dominion League has made its appearance, under the chairmanship of Sir Horace Plunkett, backed, at least in respect of its advocacy of a Dominion settlement, by a cleverly written weekly paper, The Irish Statesman. The League is doing useful work in bringing together reasonable persons from all sides; but unless the Government, for once in a way, takes such action as will give reasonable persons a chance of being listened to, the popular ear will still be lent to the exponents of Sinn Fein, for the simple reason that this organization alone is thought powerful enough to force attention to the Irish claim.

The article discusses the ecological study of the Lough Ine Rapids, considered to be favorable for research of the action of water current on marine organisms. In the study, water temperature was used as a guide to the movement of bodies of water passing through the Rapids. A Pitot tube and a manometer was used to study the current of water under the algae, covering the floor of the Rapids. Precaution was taken to prevent the formation of bubbles in the tubing between the Pitot tube and the manometer. The study found that estimates of the speed of current at the surface obtained with a Pitot tube are in agreement with those got by a Watts meter. It was also seen that when the current at the surface is fast, the current may be considerable within a very short distance of the rocks.

Preliminary studied is on Hydrography of Rapids, It shows resistance of water flow modified the tidal rhythm in Lough. It is revealed that Rapids act as control section during outflow so outflow rate is independent of sea water level. The measure of current speed with watts meter, fastest current is always in the down stream side and highest reading gotten was 3 meters per second about 6 knots. There is a distribution of laminarian algae that formed canopy. Several diagrams are presented.

The paper describes tests of the stability of three types of interindustry coefficients, industry-to-industry, commodity-to-industry, and commodity-to-commodity. Data for the first two tests are drawn from all sectors of the Irish economy, while the third test uses regression analysis to investigate sources of variation of material and labour input coefficients within one industry—shirtmaking.

Can minority group status exert an independent effect on fertility? The Irish situation suggests that it can when: the minority is relatively large, the minority's size is politically important, the minority is economically disadvantaged, and the cohesiveness of the minority is strong. Even when such conditions exist, as they apparently do in Northern Ireland, the impact of minority group status on fertility is a less important determinant of fertility than such factors as religion, rural/urban residence, or the selective impact of migration. The question is relevant not only to nations with relatively large minority groups; it also applies to countries in which minorities, while small in proporton nationally, are concentrated locally in certain states or cities.

50. Age at Marriage and Proportions Marrying.

MARRIAGE ,MARRIAGE age - Abstract
The article deals with the recent widespread increase in marriage rates in the Western world. A convenient method of studying aspects of the recent history of marriage is provided by easily available data regarding the proportion of single persons at various dates. The article uses these data to disentangle two effects in the marriage boom: the extent to which the cohorts whose marriages have formed the main contribution to the marriage boom are marrying more, i.e. whether the proportion who will ultimately remain single is likely to be lower than in previous generations, the extent to which the mean age at marriage of these generations is likely to fall below that of their predecessors. The raw material for the computations to be presented consists of the proportions single at two recent dates for each of thirteen countries used in the study. The countries included in the study are Czechoslovakia, Denmark, England and Wales, France, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, and the U.S. The study from the proportion single shows that both reduction in the age at marriage and an increase in the proportion marrying at least once in the course of their lives is occurring in several countries.
