Topic: Nation or Class?
It's that time of the month when we have our regular Libertarian Socialist Discussion Meeting at the Regent. This month's is on the subject "nation or class".
"The working class has no country!" But what does this really mean, when workers in any given country seem to willingly embrace the idea of the nation, patriotism, nationalism and all the baggage that goes with these concepts. And it's not just a matter of the popularity of far right governments in Poland, Hungary and the USA but also includes the left, some anarchists included, who continue to support national liberation struggles. So this meeting aims to explore the potential for building genuine class politics in the face of the ever present ideas of the nation.
7.30pm on Tuesday 23rd January
Upstairs at the Regent Club
