It would be fair to say that left libertarian politics has experienced something of a renaissance in Ireland in recent years. However there are many arenas of struggle where its theory and practise is relatively undeveloped. This conference focuses on two such areas: the environment and women.
These are in some way an example of what the Bad Days Will End! talked about in their critique of the ‘Give Up Activism?’document, which came out of the early days of the anti-globalisation movement in England, when they wrote: "Perhaps, then, the first steps towards a genuine anti-activism would be to turn towards these specific, everyday, ongoing struggles. How are the so-called 'ordinary' workers resisting capitalism at this time? What opportunities are already there in their ongoing struggles? What networks are already being built through their own efforts?"

Jump To Comment: 1 2This sounds like an excellent conference. I would really like to attend for Niav Keating's talk, anyone know if you can just turn up or do you need to book etc?
Hey you can just turn up..however Niav's talk is now being done by Sandra McAvoy, who teaches Women's Studies in UCC and is active in the women's movement in Cork through a number of groups including the Cork Women's Right to Choose Group and Cork Women's Political Association; as Niav couldn't come.
