This chapter considers the diverse range of critical paradigms that inform scholarship on Irish film and media. It argues that the postcolonial, once the dominant framework of analysis in the field, has retreated somewhat in favor of more implicitly “transnational” discourses such as ecocriticism; industry and production studies; critical theory; critical media practice; and memory studies. While the issue of “Irishness” has not disappeared, it has been unpicked from the ideological structures of national identity, in order to more fully account for the contemporary social, economic, and political realities of a neoliberal Irish state. |
