Great to see a space like this open up on the left.
At the launch I played Tribute to Peadar O’Donnell. He founded The Bell with O’Faoláin back in 1940.
An Cloghan means “the little bell.” A great title. It rings the alarm, signals people to gather and hopefully, calls time on the old order.
Here's a few photos from the evening 📸
Looking forward to hearing more from you and to other events coming soon 👀

A red-headed man with a beard stands outside Bang Bang café holding a copy of an Clogán. He is dressed in a black jacket and jeans. The door of the café is open. The window panes are covered in stickers. To the right of the man, a Palestinian flag hangs in a window.
An Clogán lies on a counter inside Bang Bang. To its left stand copies of the City Rocker Quarterly, to its right, a manequin head with a black, silver, and red beanie hat.

A copy of An Clogán lying open on grass. The copy is open on Shane's article. The left page has a close up image of the inside of a Duralex glass. The right page has the opening page of the article.
In the face of Macron's neoliberal onslaught, the creation of a workers' cooperative at the Duralex glass factory has inspired the French labour movement. Can it also shine a path forward for workers across Europe?

The decline of the Catholic church was greeted as an ideological victory by the Left in Ireland. But might the church's fall also signal the erosion of the social bonds necessary for any mass movement? If so, what's to be done?

Can the Irish people pursue self-determination and neutrality while remaining committed to the EU? This notion, writes @claredalyirl, is one of the central contradictions of Irish political consciousness today. As the EU militarises, progressives cannot equivocate.

A photograph of An Clogan magazine, lying open on Bruno's article on a grassy background.
Before becoming the 'godfather' of communism, Karl Marx was a committed republican. And his republicanism, writes Bruno Leipold, indelibly shaped his understanding of politics and his vision for a post-capitalist society.
