Not being aware of any anarchist mailing list in Ireland concerned with
Prisoners, Prisons and related areas, Dublin Anarchist Prisoner Support has decided to try and
create some sort of place where information of this type can be
exchanged. It
has thus created the lumpenlist@anarchistps.org.
We see no reason to keep this disscusion limited to Political or Pow's
and
would encourage posting & debate about all categories of Prisoners and
Prisons.

To subscribe to the list send an e-mail with the text ' subscribe

The private detective with the torturous personal life is a standard cliche of modern television and cinema. But he was also to be found sleuthing away behind the Iron Curtain. Similarly, devious intellectuals and honest sincere workers have thrived on both sides of the divide. This article compares the effects of communist censorship on popular culture with the effects of market pressures on modern popular culture, finding some striking similarities. read full story / add a comment

"This is crossing the Rubicon, after which there will be no more sovereign
states in Europe with fully-fledged governments and parliaments which
represent legitimate interests of their citizens, but only one State will
remain. Basic things will be decided by a remote 'federal government' in
Brussels and, for example, Czech citizens will be only a tiny particle
whose voice and influence will be almost zero. ; We are against a European
superstate."
