All-Island HP Deprivation Index
No full textThis study presents an area-based deprivation measure for the island of Ireland based on the 2011 Census. Conceptually, it builds on the study undertaken by the authors in 2011 (Haase, Pratschke and Gleeson, 2012), which used small area (SA) data from Ireland and Northern Ireland to construct a prototype of an all-island deprivation index. The index presented in this chapter embodies further advances, made possible by recent developments in data availability and harmonisation. The first major development relates to the 2011 Census itself, which was carried out concurrently in almost all European countries, providing data for both Ireland and Northern Ireland. Secondly, small areas (SA) were introduced in both jurisdictions for the publication of aggregate data from the census, providing a better alignment of geographical units. Thirdly, the CSO and NISRA have worked together on an ambitious programme of data harmonisation, leading to a joint publication using socio-economic statistics from the census on an all-island basis (CSO and NISRA, 2014). The new All-Island HP Deprivation Index builds on these developments and draws on a combined set of equivalent indicators to form a single deprivation index, providing a powerful tool for researchers and policymakers who are interested in understanding and seeking to reduce the social gradient that characterises a multiplicity of different outcomes in the economic, social and political spheres
Religion
No full textAny commentary on the religious affiliation of the population of the island of Ireland should be mindful of the potential emotiveness of the subject matter, not least given the historical usage of religion as a proxy indicator for national identity and political allegiance in Northern Ireland. Rather than dwelling on such debates and speculation, the purpose of this commentary is to provide a matter-of-fact overview of the prevalence and geographical distribution of the principal religious groupings identified on the island as derived from the 2011 censuses. It draws out the key characteristics concerning religion identification and further underlines certain comparisons, within and between, both jurisdictions on the island, with an emphasis on the largest population centres, Dublin and Belfast. Further, a more detailed emphasis is placed on Belfast as a result of the distinct geographical distribution of religion affiliation and community background that exists in the city

All-Island Deprivation Index: Towards the development of consistent deprivation measures for the Island of Ireland
No full textThis article summarises research undertaken by the authors to develop a prototype comparative cross-border deprivation measure using census data available from the respective censuses of Ireland and Northern Ireland. This new All-Island Deprivation Index, when fully tested, will allow policy-makers, practitioners and academics to better understand the spatial distribution of deprivation from a comparative perspective and provide information for cross-border communities. Based on the methodology developed in this article, it will be possible to generate a new comparative deprivation measure as soon as data from the 2011 Census for both jurisdictions becomes available. The potential linking of this index to the development of EU programmes, in a cross-border context, is an exciting output of this research and will not only benefit the cross-border region of Ireland, but also pave the way for a more evidence-based approach in the allocation of funding to cross-border regions throughout Europe

Lizzo “Truth Hurts” Co-Author Allegations
No full textFamous recording artist, Lizzo, filed a preemptive lawsuit on October 23rd, 2019 to disprove allegations that Justin and Jeramiah Raisen and Justin “Yves” Rothman deserve author credit for her song, “Truth Hurts.”Lizzo is seeking a declaratory judgment that the alleged authors have no interest in the copyright or right to share profits. The Raisens and Rothman claim that the lyric “I just took a DNA test, turns out I’m 100% that bitch”, which originated from a popular internet meme, was a part of an unreleased demo, which Lizzo recorded at the Raisen’s studio, and on the final track. Lizzo claims that Rothman believes that she will pay him to stop making accusations against her, simply because he was present at a writing session for the demo track.
