Aileen O'Carroll
National University of Ireland, Maynooth, Maynooth University Social Science Institute, Department Member
Aileen O’Carroll is the manager of the Irish Qualitative Data Archive which is based in MUSSI (Maynooth University Social Science Institute). I am also Policy Manager at the Digital Repository of Ireland.
My interests are centred on: technology, labour processes and work organisation, time & culture, class and life history research.
My work in the field of digital data is concerned with research methods, ethics & privacy, research data management .
My research is concerned with working time, particularly the organisation of working time in knowledge workplaces and I have published a book with Palgrave Macmillian which is based on this research. This is called 'Working Time, Knowledge Work & Post-Industrial Society: Unpredictable Work ' .
The Dublin Docker, an occupational history of Dublin dockers, written with Dr Don Bennett, was published by the Irish Academic Press in 2017.
I am attached to the Life History and Social Change project, based at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.
This project gathered a database of life history interviews, calendars and network charts, drawn from a nationally representative sample of respondents to a survey of employment, family and living conditions .The aim is not simply to recover the voice of those who lived through social change but also to provide a much richer understanding of the rationalities and vocabularies of social actors’ motives and how these are shaped by specific socio- historical and socio-spatial contexts.
When working in the Employment Research Center in Trinity College Dublin I produced research on the experience of women IT workers.
