What is 'Working Class Resistance'?
Welcome to Working Class Resistance (WCR!)! WCR! is a
new eight page anarchist paper which will be appearing
six times a year from this point on. The next edition
will be ready by early February 2004.
Who are involved with 'Working Class Resistance'?
The appearance of this publication marks the coming
together of the Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation,
Anarchist Federation (Ireland), Anarchist Prisoner
Support and a number of other individuals to create a
more effective and better resourced class struggle
anarchist organisation across Ireland. Together we
have created a new organisation, Organise!, with local
groups and individual members throughout the country.
Some background.
The ASF and AF in Ireland had already collaborated on
two previous publications, called Wildcat, which
presented agreed positions on the trades unions and
the ‘north’. The impetus for the creation of this
organisation goes back to a proposal made earlier this
year asking anarchists to look seriously at building
more effective organisation across Ireland. The
response to this proposal was mixed, but discussion on
moving things forward took place between those who
were most interested in pursuing it and who felt they
had most in common. Our attitude to those class
struggle anarchists outside our organisation is
comradely and co-operative; while we may have
differences, we seek to work to overcome these where
possible and to build stronger links and more effect
methods of working together as part of the process of
building a broad libertarian movement in Ireland. We
will not, on the other hand, shy away from debate and
discussion of differences, but attempt to deal with
these in an open and comradely fashion.
Most importantly, we seek through our activity and
propaganda, through discussion and practical
solidarity with our fellow workers, to show the
relevance of anarchist methods of organising and
ultimately the benefits of a future libertarian
communist revolution for workers everywhere.
