Experience, Identity & Epistemic Injustice within Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries

Experience, Identity & Epistemic Injustice within Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries

How are the identities of women shaped by religious disciplinary processes in Magdalene laundries and how do women re-engage with their sense of self after leaving the institutions? Chloë K. Gott situates these questions within the current cultural climate in which the institutions now sit, considering how they fit into Ireland's present as well as its past.
