About this listen
In this episode of Talking History, we're going back in time 10 years to remember how Ireland became the first country in the world to legalise same-sex marriage by popular vote, as we debate what the passing of the marriage equality referendum really meant for Irish history.
Featuring: Dr Mary McAuliffe, historian and Director of Gender Studies at UCD, co-editor of ‘The politics of gender and sexuality in modern Ireland’ and co-editor of ‘Sexual Politics in Modern Ireland’; Prof Sonja Tiernan, historian of modern Ireland, based at the Royal Irish Academy, and author of ‘The History of Marriage Equality in Ireland: A Social Revolution Begins’ and co-editor of ‘Sexual Politics in Modern Ireland’; Dr Brian Tobin, Associate Professor at the School of Law at the University of Galway, author of 'The Legal Recognition of Same-Sex Relationships: Emerging Families in Ireland and Beyond'; and Frances Fitzgerald, former Tánaiste and former Minister for Justice, who introduced that legislation to hold the marriage equality referendum and signed its commencement order that November.
