Eoghan Harris (born 1943) is an Irish journalist, fiction writer, director, columnist and politician. He currently writes for the ''Sunday Independent''. He was a member of Seanad Éireann from 2007–11, having been nominated by the Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Mr. Eoghan Harris )〕 Harris has held posts at various and diverse political parties throughout his career. He was a Marxist theoretician of the Workers' Party and its predecessor, Official Sinn Féin. He now says that he abhors Marxism. He was also a short-lived adviser to former Taoiseach John Bruton;〔( Harris continues his dramatic political evolution ) – ''Sunday Business Post'' article, 5 August 2007.〕 an adviser to the Ulster Unionist Party〔https://www.tribune.ie/article/2007/aug/05/tally-ho-bertie/〕 and most recently a supporter of the Fianna Fáil-led government of Bertie Ahern. At one stage an Irish republican, he is now a bitter critic of modern-day Sinn Féin, expressing his political views in the ''Sunday Independent''. Harris's critics accuse him of demonstrating ideological malleability, hypocrisy, neoconservatism and inconsistency.〔()〕 Harris is also noted for his screenwriting work; he lectures at IADT, the Irish national film school, and teaches a screenwriting workshop. Harris is also a judge on the Irish language talent show ''Glas Vegas'', on TG4. ==Early career== Harris was born in Douglas village on the outskirts of Cork city in 1943.〔(http://beo.ie ).〕 He was educated at University College Cork (UCC) where he studied English and History. He later worked at Raidió Teilifís Éireann, (RTÉ), the Irish national television broadcaster, on current affairs programmes such as ''7 Days'' and ''Féach''. He also made a documentary on mental illness called ''Darkness Visible''. In the Cork Mid by-election in March 1965〔(Mid-Cork By Election 1965 )〕 he campaigned for Sylvester Cotter, who was standing for Poblacht Chríostúil. At this time he met his future wife, UCC student Anne O'Sullivan. The aim of the party was "to base the social and economic policies of our country on Christian social reform, as elaborated by the last six Popes."〔Party's basic Positions, Irish Times, 29 March 1965.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eoghan Harris」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
