FAMILY TREE OF THE IRISH LEFT: GRALTON, SEPT. 1983
I came across this while researching the Looking Left programme that was based on Z Magazine/Gralton. I thought it was interesting, so below is a thumbnail to the full-sized image. As far as I know, the family tree was designed by John Goodwillie, who also produced a glossary of the Left in Ireland in the same issue (Gralton, no.9, Aug/Sep 1983). I’ll try to get that up tomorrow.
The author of the map states that:
To simplify the diagram, youth movements have been omitted except for the Young Socialists and Young Socialist Alliance, whose history did not follow that of parent organizations. Dashed lines indicate that one group were members of, or closely connected with another. Left and right on the diagrams do not represent any judgement of political stance…Note 1 [refers to] Left Alternative
Note 2 [refers to] The SLP Tendencies [who] were Socialist Workers Tendency, Republican Socialist Tendency, and Workers’ Alliance for Action.
Note 3 [refers to] Socialists Against Nationalism”
