It is a common misconception that religion in Northern Ireland is merely a marker of ethnicity. Particularly for Catholics, religion is thought to represent, but not play a part in constructing, social differences. This paper urges re-examination of how the relationships between religion and politics are conceived, and argues that analysis must extend beyond linkages between theological beliefs and political preferences. Other dimensions of religion, such as its role in the construction of community and identity as well as its institutional influence, are much more useful in understanding the social significance of Catholicism. The paper concludes that when these dimensions of religion are examined, we find that Catholicism is much more than an ethno-national marker, and has in fact been enormously important in the politics of conflict, and in the continuing construction of communal identity, in Northern Ireland.

The national legal system is determined by traditional elements characterizing the culture and customs that exist in the social environment in the form of moral standards and the law. However, the attitude of the population to the letter of the law, as a rule, initially contains negative properties in order to preserve personal freedom, status, position. Therefore, to solve pressing problems of rooting in the minds of society of the elementary foundations of the initial order, and then the rule of law in the public sphere, proverbs and sayings were developed that in essence contained legal educational criteria.

AbstractThis paper examines the different ways that professional experts and everyday language users engage in scaling practices to claim authority when they talk about multilingual practices and the social significance they assign to them. Specifically, we compare sociolinguists’ use of the term translanguaging to describe multilingual and multimodal practices to the diverse observations of amateur online commentators, or citizen sociolinguists. Our analysis focuses on commentary on cross-linguistic communicative practices in Wales, or “things Welsh people say.” We ultimately argue that by calling practices “translanguaging” and defaulting to scaled-up interpretations of multilingual communication, sociolinguists are increasingly missing out on analyses of how the social meaning of (cross)linguistic practices accrues and evolves within specific communities over time. By contrast, the fine-grained perceptions of “citizen sociolinguists” as they discuss their own communicative practices in context may have something unique and underexamined to offer us as researchers of communicative diversity.
