Hello again – thanks to everyone who showed up yesterday for the conference. In response to calls for the podcasts - we’re working on it, but it’s going to take a couple of days to set that up. What we do have right now is the web-cast replay available at:

 http://www.ustream.tv/channel/trinity-college-dublin-department-of-political-science-conference

So check that out if you couldn’t make it on the day or for the whole conference.

We should have the conference presentations available at politicalreform.ie very soon.

So we’ve now established a webpage as a home for this conference – you can check it out at: politicalreform.ie

Welcome! This blog has been set up to complement a conference on reforming Ireland’s political institutions – we’ll be posting the presentations to be made at the conference as they become available to us.

The idea with this blog is to open the debate up to anyone who’d like to contribute - in terms of ideas, criticism, comments etc.

Also the conference is open to anyone who’s interested in attending – we’ve set it up so that all of the presentations will be in plain language and we’ve allocated plenty of time for discussion from the audience.

We have got together many of the experts, some of those who edited and wrote the standard textbook Politics in the Republic of Ireland as well as many leading practitioners and media commentators.
