Date: Tue, 20 May 1997 13:00:46 +1000 (EST) From: Gary MacLennan <g.maclennan-AT-qut.edu.au> Subject: M-I: On Irish Nationalism My good friend Lois P. has been politiely suggesting that I might like to put a contribution on Ireland to this list. I would love to but am incredibly busy. Still I will try something between semesters. For the present however I have been forced into posting on the Leninlist a riposte to Paul Cockshott's remarks on the reactionary nature of nationalism in general and Irish nationalism in particular. This marks Cockshott off as a memeber of the rvisionist school of Maoism that within the context of Ireland ended up supporting the British Army. I regarded Cockshott's views as so obnosious and degenerate that I did reply. Cockshott has come back at me and I have answered him. But more serious work needs to be done on the Irish question, and I will make something of an effort. regards Gary --- from list marxism-international-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
