Talk:International Marxist Tendency

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is the move and renaming of this page quite correct. the CMI's usage is actually "international Marxist tendency": not the proper noun "International Marxist Tendency". That suggests that the CMI name is used for internal use only, as RSL was and CWI was for many years. --Duncan 11:54, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Interesting point - my rename may be in error, but it'd be difficult to prove that they still call themselves the CMI. The CMI name can be found on their website, but not in any articles written since 2004, since when they have been capitalising "International Marxist Tendency".

The official name is now International Marxist Tendency in English (and Corriente Marxista Internacional in Spanish). You can ask them. :-) Sooner or later some official document will be issued stating the name change and we will be able to add the citation. --MauroVan 13:53, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
I think both names are in current usage, whatever the official one is. Trious 10:15, 2 September 2006 (UTC)


I thought that IMT had 1 MP in Pakistan, and 2 MP's classed as supporters, not members? Can someone please clarify this for me? 217.43.65.118 21:26, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

I think it's more along the lines of 3 mp's and 2 or more supporter mp's in pakistan, gonna need to check up on it though

Yes, it's the way that it is actually one, but two are sympathizers. however, this year is election year and it looks good that "the struggle" will have 10 mps afterwards on a ppp ticket. -- Icaras 09:26, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "they currently have no group in Israel"

Re: today's cut. Really? What about the group around Yossi Scharwtz?[1] I thought they have 20 people there? They certainly have a phone number there [2] --Duncan 23:21, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes there is a group in Israel, btw who added the part on the expulsions? While it's true that people have been kicked out in Denmark from a group that was supposed to have freedom for tendencies and factions the same cannot be said about Austria, to my knowlegde supporters of Der Funke in Austria are stil working in the Juso, am gonna delete the part about Austria in a few days if there is no sane objections and maybe add some sources on the danish incident.80.167.85.23 12:35, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Btw the whole paragraph on expulsions are in it's wording quite unobjective, personally I was in the SUF in Denmark from the beginning, everybody knew I was also IMT, the mere iclination that I should somehow have "infiltrated" that organisation is just BS. The expulsions was clearly political and inside the SUF there is brewing discontent among more ordinary rank and file against that insane step. So the whole paragraph should be rewritten imo.80.167.85.23 12:40, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, as long as the affiliates are not grouped into categories this is senseless. you can't compare a small propaganda group who is in discussions with the IS and will probably join or not join with a branch like the pakistani section who want to recrute 5000 membres by ende of this year... it is not important where and how many national branches you have and how many comrades are organised in them, but a struggle of ideas. so, it would be better that - like on the german page about the imt - you have a short review of the imt's positions on cuba, pakistan, religion, middle east, china, venezuela... than to sum up the link-section of the idom website. - Icaras 09:24, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
