Perspective of two eras…
Put simply, Irish marketing has evolved from been viewed as
something of an oxymoron to being a first league player.

Irish Marketing Review
Some Perspectives on the Irish Consumer by Darach Turley (1986)
‘Overall, the data under consideration point to the validity of viewing the
Irish as a distinct group of consumers with identifiable national traits.’
The Irish Consumer Through Irish Eyes: European Values Survey 1990
by Darach Turley (2005)
‘Results show that Ireland, although changing, is doing so very much on
its own terms. In the European value context this nation emerges as
exceptional and idiosyncratic.’

Irish Marketing Review
The Importance of Being Branded: An Irish Perspective
by John Fanning (2006), Liffey Press, Dublin.
‘Transposing Holt’s thinking on cultural branding to Ireland, land of
the eponymous Celtic Tiger, Fanning (2006) analyses six cultural
contradictions: freedom/restraint, individualism/community,
globalization/dinnseanchas,[1] affluence/affluenza, control/chaos and
conformity/creativity. He knowledgeably and imaginatively considers
how these apparently contradictory tensions may sunder Irish society
in the 21st century – and speculates on how far-seeing marketers
might advantageously ‘cultivate this schismatic core’, to use Shakar’s
(2001) phrase.’ O’Driscoll (2008)
[1] Dinnseanchas is a Gaelic language word that celebrates an intense attachment to the lore of the local; a place’s
significance is communicated and sustained through the Gaelic place name and the myth, folklore and history
associated with the place.

Does a distinctive Irish marketing practice and voice exist?
The material published in IMR over two decades bears witness to
a changing, maturing and innovative marketing practice that has
yielded a competitive edge internationally, and also to an adaptive
consumer and workforce that have coped with significant
economic and societal change.
The story of this material reveals ambiguity, conflicting
tensions and apparent contradiction, or paradox, in its
narratives and thinking, whether between science and the arts,
local and global, Boston and Berlin, Celtic and Saxon,
mechanistic and magical, or indeed, theory and practice.
Resolving these apparent opposites in a selectively inclusive,
win-win manner seems a characteristic of the Irish psyche,
manager and consumer.

Tyranny of ‘Either-or’…
Derrida argues that ‘logocentrism’ permeates every aspect of
Western thought, making different ways of organising or
understanding the world difficult to conceive.
He claims that Western thought is obsessed with creating reality by
organising the world into polar realms. The first of these is always
privileged in our culture, while its opposite is nullified, degraded, negated
(nature/culture, male/female, organisation/disorganisation, mental
labour/physical labour, production/consumption and so on.
Thinking in such binary, polar, opposing terms occurs, not because it
is natural or intuitive for humankind, but because it is culturally
ingrained.
Aidan O’Driscoll CCS Seminar at DCU 2007
Embracing the ‘Other’…
One of Derrida’s fundamental strands of thought is that all versions of
Western thinking have tried to marginalise and suppress this sense of
the Other that exists (paradoxically) at the very heart of whatever is
seen as being the privileged, correct, rational option.
The Other, or ‘l’autre’, is a key word in Derrida’s work The Other
becomes a useful way to begin to think about the opposing pulls (such
as globalisation versus localisation) that exert their force on business
and the organisation, to consider how they interpenetrate, and how it
is impossible to separate them, even though they are given opposite
spaces in our minds.
Derrida famously remarked in his 1992 essay on Europe that: ‘What
is proper to a culture is not be identified to itself… There is no
culture or cultural identity without this difference with itself.’

Managing Ambiguity into Synthesis…
A characteristic of Irish culture ?
‘For too long and too often we speak of the others
or the other side − and what we need to do is to
get to a place of through-otherness.’
Seamus Heaney
It is noteworthy that the oft-used Irish language
expression, trí na chéile, suggests ‘trying to cope with
confusion’, yet its literal translation means ‘through
its other’, implying that a comprehension comes from
a through-otherness

Stephen Brown, University of Ulster
‘Many products exhibit a paradoxical essence, or
paradessence, in promising to satisfy simultaneously two
opposing consumer/buyer desires.’
Aidan O’Driscoll CCS Seminar at DCU 2007
Managing Ambiguity into Synthesis…
That a resolution, particular to Ireland and the Irish,
of these tensions and paradoxes shields business and
marketing with a competitive edge internationally –
and the country’s consumers and workforce with the
necessary coping strategies – leads to the conclusion
that a distinctive Irish marketing practice and voice
exist.
