Dick Haslam 1925 - 2012
24.04.2012

RICHARD HASLAM: RICHARD (DICK) Haslam, who has died aged 86, was a former Limerick county manager, a leading proponent of local government reform and the driving force behind University College Cork‟s Department of Public Administration (now Department of Government).

As a practitioner and lifelong student of local government in Ireland, he had an unwavering belief in the devolved system but regarded Ireland‟s highly centralised form of national government as the bane of his life.

Mature and sage, both in life and profession, he was big in stature, a good man to tell a story and had a cool head in difficult situations. To his colleagues he was, as one succinctly put it, “a friend, mentor and inspiration”.

The Department of German and the Department of Government are currently holding a poster exhibition on the Fall of the Berlin Wall, to mark the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall on 9th November 1989. 

Much has happened since then and the posters give an excellent and accessible overview of the main events leading to 9th November 1989 and the subsequent reunification of East and West Germany, which had been divided for over 40 years.  The exhibition opening took place on Friday 20th November and was kindly opened by Mr Horst Dopychai, Cultural Attaché to the German Embassy Dublin.   Posters were provided by the Bundesstiftung fuer die Aufarbeitung der SED-Diktatur, which can be found online at http://www.stiftung-aufarbeitung.de.  The opening was a success despite the extreme weather conditions and flooding which prevented many people from attending.

The posters can be viewed in the O'Rahilly Building on the main UCC campus, 2nd floor, in the area outside the Government Department.

The exhibition will be running until 18th December 2009.

Many thanks to our sponsors:  German Embassy Dublin, UCC German Department, UCC Politics Programme, UCC Commerce Faculty and UCC Law Faculty.

Ivana Bacik

Senator Ivana Bacik delivers the 11th Annual Philip Monahan Memorial Lecture

Senator Ivana Bacik delivered the 11th Annual Philip Monahan Memorial Lecture on Thursday 19 November before 200 people in UCC’s Aula Maxima. Senator Bacik asserted that there are three basic features of our system of constitutional governance that make our status as a republic questionable.

First, she argued that the Constitution has failed adequately to ensure implementation of the separation of powers doctrine, a key tenet of any functioning republican state. Secondly, she suggested that the Constitution still embodies what has been called ‘a pro-religion ethos’ apparent in Article 44.1 and the Preamble, committing the courts to a set of constitutional propositions that no liberal democracy should countenance. The theocratic ideology underlying the text is no longer appropriate or sustainable, she claimed, in modern Ireland – particularly not in a modern state that claims to be a republic. Thirdly and finally, Bacik proposed that there is a misfit between the theocratic ideology already mentioned, and the somewhat conflicting liberal-democracy ideology that also underlies the fundamental rights provisions.
