Abstract
Kiran Sarma, PhD Garda Research Unit, Templemore, Ireland In recent years has become widely recognised that the gay, lesbian and bisexual community in Ireland experiences a disturbing amount of anti-gay crime. This said, with the exception of a few largely exploratory studies, there is a complete absence of high quality research that examines these experiences in Ireland and we have been forced to formulate our response on a vague notion that it is a problem rather than a truly informed appreciation of its extent. This paper argues in favour of such research, and suggests the form might take based on a review of findings from international studies and the methodological barriers they have encountered.
