	Censorship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Censorship of some forms of sensitive information, such as commercial secrets and intellectual property, official secrets, and legal privilege, are not usually described as censorship, provided that they remain within bounds which are recognised in general as being reasonable.
		Censorship is closely tied in as a concept with freedom of speech and other forms of human expression, and when tightly exerted is often allied with human rights and abuse, dictatorships and repression.
		Censorship can be explicit, as in laws passed to prevent select positions from being published or propagated, or it can be implicit, taking the form of intimidation by government, where people are afraid to express or support certain opinions for fear of losing their jobs, their position in society, their credibility, or their lives.

	War, Neutrality And Irish Identities, 1939-1945
		Ireland was divided psychologically before it was partitioned politically, says Hennessey, and the particular way in which identities changed and clashed during the war resulted in a separatist rather than a home rule Ireland.
		In Northern Ireland their diverse identity as Irish-British patriots was denied while in the south they were marginalised socially, politically and culturally, and excluded them from the ongoing process of identity formation.
		One obvious solution was to revise the narrative itself, to argue that Ireland wasn’t really neutral at all during the war, that it was a non-belligerent on the side of the allies, that the country did as much as it could to aid the allied side during the war.

		Censorship is the act of an official, government authority to suppress expression.
		However, censorship is often alleged when an essentially private entity, such as a corporation, regulates access to information in a communication forum that serves a significant share of the public.
		In recent times, censorship has taken the form of limiting access to public information in more useful formats, such as electronic information used by regulatory agencies, while the right to access and disseminate reports based on public information is limited to forms of information that can only be analyzed by scanning or reading paper documents.

		Unfortunately, the national media in the Republic of Ireland have remained remarkably silent for the most part regarding the local efforts that are being made in East Galway to challenge the bad consequences of political and legal corruption: as they present themselves down at grass-root community level.

		Before inertia slides Northern Ireland back into another generation of unhappy direct rule, the pervasive - and perhaps incorrect - assumption that independence could not work or would not be acceptable needs to be examined and tested vigorously.
		Assuming that the proposed constitutional government were in the form of a 'presidential' system of government, the elected shadow president and shadow legislators would be empowered to select, in accordance with that system, an executive cabinet and members of the judiciary.
