Every fortnight the Jack White branch of the WSM discuss a topic of interest to anarchists.

This Tuesday we will be looking at the idea of a Moneyless Economy. Anarchists want a non-market socialist economy, with free access to goods and services. Is this just a nice but impossible idea? Is an efficient economy possible without money, trade or barter?

These are informal meetings, and are open to anyone with an interest in anarchist politics .

It will begin at nine pm and at ten we will continue the discussion in a local pub.

The recent spate of sectarian attacks in villages in Antrim and elsewhere are obviously not a reaction to the IRA as there is no longer anything resembling a war going on. In fact they are a product of the sectarianism deeply embedded in northern society. They're a product of hundreds of years of cynical use of same to maintain the privilge and position of the ruling class. read full story / add a comment
