"Old Nations, Auld Enemies, New Times" is a new collection of essays by Tom Nairn, which will be launched on Monday 15 September at 6:30pm at Martin Hall, New College, Edinburgh. For the last fifty years Nairn has been one of Britainâ€™s most consistently provocative and influential voices. Old Nations, Auld Enemies, New Times brings together, for the first time, the full span of his work, from his ground-breaking analysis of the British state in the 1960s and â€˜70s to his more recent examinations of globalisation, the English question and the independence referendum. I hope you can join us for what promises to be one of the most exciting literary and media events of the referendum debate so far. The debate will be chaired by editors Jamie Maxwell and Pete Ramand.

The Westminster establishment are in the throws of a huge crisis as the people of Scotland look towards a Yes vote as an alternative to the austerity consensus. After decades of neoliberalism, privatisation and war, September the 18th offers us a platform to build an alternative. This is an opportunity not just for the people of Scotland, but for the movement across the rest of the UK. This meeting will present solidarity from activists involved with the left wing Red Pepper magazine in our campaign for a radical Yes, and a Peoples Scotland. Speakers Jane Shallice: Politically active since the 60â€™s when protesting Vietnam. Since then has been involved in trade union organising and anti-imperialist action with Stop the War Coalition. With theatre experience, Jane has a creative approach to politics and has long been a contributor to Red Pepper magazine. Ewa Jasiewicz: Campaigner and writer. Heavily involved in the fight against fracking and in the news recently for occupying the roof of a UK based Israeli arms factory. Also involved in anti-capitalist campaigns, Fuel Poverty Action, No Dash for Gas and has worked as a union organiser for Unite. http://www.theguardian.com/profile/ewajasiewicz Jennifer Nelson: From Merseyside, now living in London to work full time for Red Pepper magazine. Has experience of various political campaigns, charity work and independent media projects. John Davidson: An independence and trade union organiser in the PCS and a member of trade unions for Yes.
