I've added a new link under "Links." This addition is called the
Burkean Journal. Below is the full detail from their "About" page.
"The
Burkean Journal is an online political and cultural magazine run by
university students in Ireland that promotes conservative thought and
ideas. Founded in Trinity College Dublin, the Burkean Journal seeks to
be a nationwide magazine for all Irish universities and for
Irish society in its entirety. Our aim is to provide an intellectual
platform and a publishing service for students to contribute their
conservative views on local and general issues that are not otherwise
represented by mainstream publications on their campuses. We also
publish articles from non-student writers and conservative experts in
their respective fields, so as to provide our readers with the best
quality material.
The
Burkean Journal is named after Edmund Burke, one of Ireland’s most
distinguished statesmen. His statue stands just outside Trinity
College’s main entrance as a sign of respect and admiration to his life
and achievements. His writings and ideas have contributed enormously to
the field of political philosophy and he is considered to be the father
of modern conservatism.
Part
of our goal is to have a wide range of conservative spectrum —
paleo-conservatives,neo-conservatives, the deeply religious and the
agnostic, libertarians and social conservatives, free-marketeers and the
more protectionist. We encourage debate and give a forum to the many
veins of conservatism. Apart from politics, we also address wider issues
such as culture, history, philosophy, literature and the arts."
Thanks to the
Irish Papist who has an
article published in it for indirectly introducing me to the journal. If the left in Ireland thinks it's trash then it must be doing something right (no pun intended).
