Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This article takes a dependency and world theory
perspective on two periods in the history of a parish in County Donegal: the 1830s-1880s,
around the time of the Great Famine; and the post-World War Two through 1960s Bretton Woods
period. Although Glencolumbkille has been portrayed as "remote, inaccessible, marginal,
disadvantaged, underdeveloped," it is argued that the county has long been integrated into
the global economy, as a supplier of cod, ling and, later, herring to European markets.
These links were cut by the colonial government and the county became an area to be
"regulated, improved, ordered, developed, and modernized." The traditional mixed and
communal ([n]rundale[/n]) farming system was broken up in an effort to rationalize land use
and obtain higher rents. Open fields were enclosed and property boundaries redrawn,
breaking up the nucleated ([n]clachan[/n]) settlements and creating a dispersed housing
pattern in its stead. The practice of rent racking destabilized the livelihood of tenants
on the eve of the Great Famine.
