The
publication and dissemination of socialist literature has historically
played a influential role in increasing socialist awareness amongst
Scottish workers and has been an important medium for the transmission
of socialist ideas throughout society.
In
recognition of this, the
Scottish Socialist Publishing Co-operative (SSP Co-op) has been
established to inform socialist debate in
Scotland
and to present our arguments for a viable, socialist alternative to
New Labour.
We now invite socialists
to join this new publishing venture.
In doing so, SSP Co-op
members will allow us to produce up to date publications on the
struggles, campaigns and policies that we believe will further
Socialism in
Scotland
and throughout the World.
The aims of the co-operative are
as follows:
·
To encourage Scottish
Socialist Party members/supporters to invest* in the Co-op which would
generate a pool of money to allow the Co-op to publish up-to-date
socialist materials.
·
To promote the policies and
campaigns of the Scottish Socialist Party by publishing pamphlets,
books etc that are requested/commissioned by the party publications
committee.
·
Membership is open to all
members/supporters of the Scottish Socialist Party who invest the
minimum membership fee of £10.
·
The SSP Co-op will operate
on a democratic basis i.e. one member, one vote.
·
Members who invest more
than the minimum amount will have the same voting rights as other
members regardless of the value of their investment.
·
Members who invest in the
co-op will be able to withdraw their investment at any time repayable
at one month’s notice.
