cork / anti-capitalism / event notice Saturday June 06, 2009 19:04 by Joe Moore
Ireland's Economic Crash is a new book by Kieran Allen. It recounts how a miracle economy turned into an economic disaster zone. While ordinary people suffer, the government bails out banks and imposes wage cuts, levies and reductions in basic public services. The result is a downward spiral of economic gloom and doom.
The Cork launch will take place on Wednesday 24th June, at 8.00pm in the Victoria Hotel, Patrick St.
The launch will consist of a special slide show to illustrate some of the main arguments of the book and the type of solutions that can help working people. Afterwards there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion with the author. read full story / add a comment
