[edit] AWL

Having spent several years in the organisation, I wonder if the Alliance for Workers' Liberty wouldn't fit better under 'Ex-Trotskyist'. It sees little positive meaning in the 'Trotskyist' label. Unsigned comment

  • As an AWL member, I think that the group is accurately described as "Trotskyist". But the only way for this list not to descend into chaos is to take groups' self definitions. Hence the Posadists are listed, although I'd say they have nothing signficant in common with Trotsky. As a brief list, this isn't the best place for discussion of the political orientation of groups - the article on the AWL should make our positions clear (and probably needs some work).

[edit] ITC

Is the International Trotskyist Committee for the Political Regeneration of the Fourth International still active? I thought it never recovered from its 1991 split. --Duncan 09:21, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Scope

We are adding to this not only Internationals (world parties) but also co-ordinating committees and liason groups without a party-type structure. Do we want to turn this into a list of international trotskyist committees? --Duncan 07:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

I agree with using a broad definition here, because even, say, the ICFI didn't have a party-type structure for most of its existance. Do you think we should rename the article, or that this current name is clearer, and the precise scope could be covered in the introduction? Warofdreams talk 20:56, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
I think broader scope makes sense, and we should spell it out. Can you imagine trying to work out a dispute on which are 'real' Internationals?!? --Duncan 11:16, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Socialist Utopia (Utopia Socialista)

The seems to have only an Italian organisation supporting it. [1]--Duncan 12:38, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sentence with a ...

Others argue that the title "Fourth International" is so discredited that a Fifth International or another new organization.

This sentence needs to be completed, however I am not sure what it is trying to say, or I would fix it. --86.128.252.182 02:42, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ex-trotskyist

I think these organisations should be moved off this page, which is a list of Trotskyist internationals, and instead onto the list of left-wing internationals.--Duncan (talk) 09:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. Warofdreams talk 02:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I'l do that now.
