In a new book coauthored with fellow political scientists, UCD's Aidan Regan argues that the three goals of democracy, economic growth and effective climate action are at odds with one another, and that the resulting “trilemma” requires novel political solutions to solve. On today's podcast Aidan talks to Hugh about why it is so difficult to balance these goals and potential solutions. They also discuss why effective climate action should be linked to improved standards of living, not increased costs; whether regulations are really to blame for our failure to deliver infrastructure and housing; how China manages to achieve economic growth while leading in the transition to green technology; and whether “degrowth” is a realistic path to sustainability or a political impossibility. The New Trilemma of Advanced Capitalism: Democracy, Growth and Effective Climate Action by Aidan Regan, Hanna Schwander, Cyril Benoît and Tim Vlandas is available now.

Hello & Welcome To Today's Episode! Today's guest has a unique perspective as she's both a high performance athlete AND a pelvic physio who is passionate about keeping girls and women involved in sport.Clodagh McIntyre is a rising star in physiotherapy who is both an inter-county camogie player for Tipperary and a pelvic health physiotherapist. Clodagh discussed her journey from UCD graduate to working in private practice, her experiences with stress incontinence as an athlete, and the lack of pelvic health education in physio training programs. We explored how pelvic health issues affect female athletes, with statistics showing 7 out of 10 athletes leaving sport due to bladder leakage, and discussed the taboo nature of discussing these topics within sporting teams. We discussed the importance of education and support around pelvic health issues for female athletes, highlighting the lack of standardization in GAA and potentially LGFA, as well as emphasising the need to normalize conversations about these issues and prevent them from deterring athletes from participating in sports.Clodagh shared her upcoming trip to Kenya with Warriors for Humanity and Self-Help Africa, where she plans to plant trees and help communities, for which she is fundraising. Please see linked below to her fundraiser! https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/clodaghmcintyre Our shared passion is definitely showcasing the conversation and embedding pelvic health into female athlete wellbeing : there's SUCH a need for better education about pelvic health at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as within sporting organizations, to support female athletes and prevent them from dropping out of sport due to pelvic health issues.Want to learn more about supporting the Female Athlete, and promoting pelvic and menstrual health?

Crying is something every human being does, yet many of us still feel embarrassed or apologetic when it happens. From childhood, people are often taught to see tears as a sign of weakness or losing control. But psychologically, crying is a natural and healthy human response. We see it even on the biggest stages in the world actors and actresses last night were standing on stage at the Oscars, overwhelmed with emotion and crying as they accepted an award. So why do we cry, what purpose do tears serve, and why do we still carry so much shame around them? Dr Marie Murray, Psychologist & Adjunct Professor, School of Psychology, UCD joined Sean Moncreiff on the show.

Hace cuatro décadas, el 12 de marzo de 1986, el pueblo español ratificó en referéndum la permanencia en la Organización del Tratado del Atlántico Norte, donde nuestro país había ingresado apenas cuatro años antes. El debate generó gran polémica, despertó una implicación social masiva y, al mismo tiempo, algunos cambios políticos tan drásticos como inesperados.Cuando Leopoldo Calvo-Sotelo se comprometió durante su investidura a que España entrara en la Alianza Atlántica, encontró en la izquierda una oposición tajante y unánime. Las movilizaciones contra la organización y las bases estadounidenses en suelo español partieron de formaciones extraparlamentarias, pero fue la implicación del PSOE con su famosa campaña "OTAN, de entrada no" la que condujo a la opinión pública a percibir la incorporación como algo negativo.Una vez en el Gobierno, bien por una reevaluación de la realidad, bien por presiones externas, bien por ambas cosas, el presidente Felipe González varió su posición y apostó por quedarse en la Alianza. Pero mantuvo su compromiso electoral de someterlo a votación popular. Ese giro de postura radical dividió a los españoles, enfrentó a las izquierdas y decepcionó profundamente a muchos militantes y votantes socialistas. En la convocatoria de la consulta, la permanencia quedaba condicionada por tres cláusulas: la no pertenencia a la estructura militar integrada, la reducción de bases estadounidenses y la prohibición de armas nucleares en nuestro país. El PSOE fue el único que defendió el "sí", pues los partidos de la derecha que en 1981 habían votado a favor del ingreso de España en la OTAN optaron por inhibirse con distintos matices.En este documental sonoro, escrito por Luis Zaragoza y realizado por Mayca Aguilera, participan los historiadores Giulia Quaggio, coordinadora del libro 'Imaginando la Guerra Fría desde los márgenes: la sociedad española y la OTAN', y Javier Muñoz Soro, especialista en historia intelectual y cultural del franquismo y la Transición. También aportan su testimonio personas que vivieron las distintas etapas del referéndum: Javier Rupérez, primer embajador de España ante la OTAN, miembro primero de UCD y luego de uno de los partidos integrados en Coalición Popular; Jaime Pastor, politólogo y dirigente de la Liga Comunista Revolucionaria; Ignacio Varela, consultor político que participó en el diseño de campañas socialistas; y Antonio García Santesmases, dirigente de la corriente Izquierda Socialista. Los sonidos de la época, procedentes del Archivo RTVE, completan el caleidoscopio de la evolución social y política en torno a esta cuestión.Escuchar audio
