Irish Socialist Republican Party. The ISRP, maliciously described as having more syllables than members, was established in 1896 by James Connolly out of the Dublin Socialist Society, which had employed him as its organizer. Inspired by the Marxist Social Democratic Federation in England, it published a newspaper, the Workers' Republic, and sent delegates to the second International, but collapsed after Connolly's departure for America in 1903.
