PAMPHLET LAUNCH: A force for progress? 5 myths about the European Union

category dublin | eu | event notice author Tuesday November 10, 2009 12:47author by Irish Socialist Network Report this post to the editors


Journalist Harry Browne of Village to speak at launch of new ISN pamphlet on the European Union.


As the recent referendum on the Lisbon Treaty reminded us, the European Union has sharply divided opinion on the Left in Ireland and elsewhere. In general, liberals and social democrats have taken a positive view of the EU project, seeing it as a force for progress in the world. The radical left has been much more critical, accusing the EU of promoting neo-liberalism and militarization. The two camps have been found on opposite sides in referenda on European treaties like Nice and Lisbon.

A new pamphlet published by the Irish Socialist Network places itself firmly in the second camp. It challenges some of the key arguments made in favour of the EU by the liberal left, and argues for a different form of international co-operation more suited to left-wing goals.

Journalist Harry Browne will speak at the launch of the pamphlet in Connolly Books on Tuesday November 17th from 5.30pm to 6.30pm.

All welcome to attend.
