A major conference on anti-capitalist ideas takes place in Dublin on November 22nd to 24th in Trinity College Dublin.

Entitled Marxism 2002, it brings together a wide range of international speakers who have advanced a critical response to globalisation.

They include:

* Professor Mike Davis, the author of City of Quartz and Prisoners of the American Dream, who will discuss the growing anti-war movement in America.

· Francois Duval, the General Secretary of the Ligue Communiste Revolutionarie in France, who will speak on socialist planning. The LCR won 4 percent vote in the recent Presidential elections.

· Brian Kelly, a History lecturer in Queen’s University who recently won the Isaac Deutscher book prize who will talk on the origins of Zionism.

· Luke Choto, a socialist from Zimabwe who has been active in the Movement for Democratic Change. He will speak on Africa, development and Socialism.

· A representative of the Refundazione Communista, Italy who were prominent in organising the European Social Forum in Florence.

One of the organisers of the event, Kieran Allen said,

“ There is a huge radicalisation underway at the moment. There is a thirst for radical ideas that has not been seen since the sixties.

We expect hundreds of activists to attend Marxism 02 which will the biggest left wing event in Ireland. The event has built up a reputation for lively debate and discussion”
It will show that another world is possible.

It will be deleted.

(This has nothing to do with my visceral hatred of the SWP. Just applying the rules.)

"Privatisation: For the MDC, privatisation of public enterprises will be a means of restoring the efficient management and competitiveness of the economy." - Feb 20th, 2002

"MDC’s privatisation strategy encompasses not just parastatal enterprises, but reform of the structures of the civil service. With the objective of achieving a lean and efficient state administration, outsourcing and contract management under MDC is to be an important element in government management policy." - May 9th, 2000.

Yep, that sounds like Marxism to me alright...

Another reason to come along and hear what a socialist on the spot makes of these developments and the struggle generally.

a conference on marxist ideas yeah thats all very well and good but whos behind it? yeah thats right the swp those people who claim to be marxists but ignore all the teachings of great marxist teachers. Go long for a laugh cos the realistic anti-capitalists will be out there doing work not inside discussing about "popular fronts" or "deomcratic fronts" or wotever crap that goes for politics the swp is spouting these days
