Organise!
marks the coming together of the Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation,
Anarchist Federation, Anarchist Prisoner Support and a number of
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 across Ireland.
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.
