The Emergence of Modern Irish Socialism 1885-87.

Further to last weeks pamphlet on the post war revolutionary situation in Italy from 1943-48, the ISN have made available our latest pamphlet on the left in lo stivale: “Italy’s Red Decade Social struggles & political power 1968-80”.

In response to the “historic compromise” between the Communist Party and the Christian Democrats, the Red Brigades kidnapped and killed Aldo Moro – the former Italian Prime Minister in 1978.

The front page of the site also provides a link to an article on the origins of the Irish Socialist Movement (1885-87) by ISN member Fintan Lane (from the WSMs “Red & Black” magazine).

Along with the Italian pamphlets, the ISN site also contains pamphlets on:

-An introduction to Karl Marx
-Trade Unionism & Partnership
-The politics of Rosa Luxemburg

The same “pamphlets and articles” section contains 20 or so articles on various subjects of interest to Irish activists.
All pamphlets and articles are free to download from the following location:
