This launch event of Ireland: Republicanism and Revolution by Alan Woods was hosted by Wellred Books on 26 November at the London Irish Center. Ben Curry – author of the introduction and writer and activist for Socialist Appeal – introduced the book followed by a Q&A.

In this talk from Socialist Appeal’s Revolution Festival in November 2019, Alan Woods – editor of In Defence of Marxism – discusses his book on the revolutionary movement that overthrew the Franco regime in Spain in the 1970s. Based on his own personal experiences and involvement, Alan explains how the movement to overthrow the Franco regime was a modern-day revolution, with the working class providing the motor force for change.

On the weekend of November 10 and 11 2018, the NYC comrades of the International Marxist Tendency hosted the 2018 Northeast Regional Marxist School. The weekend started with the premiere of The Revolutionary Philosophy of Marxism, led off by Alan Woods, who wrote the book’s introduction. He explained the Marxist worldview and why it is necessary to make the effort to study these ideas and methods.
