The articles by James Connolly in this issue of Solidarity are part of our series, “Connolly, politically unexpurgated”. They express Connolly’s answer on the issue of how socialism would make headway in Ireland given the hostile influence of the priests and the division of the working class on religious lines.
The articles by Connolly we have this week formulate his attitude to the physical-force and cultural-nationalist traditions in Ireland as he found them on his first arrival there as a socialist organiser.
