Revolutionary Marxist Association – Communist Project

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Revolutionary Marxist Association – Communist Project, in Italian Associazione marxista rivoluzionaria – Progetto comunista, or AMR Progetto Comunista, was a Trotskyist grouping in the Partito della Rifondazione Comunista (PRC) in Italy.

However in May 2006, after the entry of the PRC into Romano Prodi’s government and disagreements not only with the party majority, but also with the minority currents “L’Ernesto” and “Sinistra Critica” over Italian military involvement in Afghanistan, the group’s leaders left the PRC and launched the Movement for the Communist Workers' Party (Italian Partito Comunista dei Lavoratori).

It is the second largest section in the Co-ordinating Committee for the Refoundation of the Fourth International.

Its leaders include Marco Ferrando and Franco Grisolia.

It is largely, though not entirely, a continuation of the AMR Proposta, which was the largest section in the International Trotskyist Opposition.

The Italian Wikipedia biography of Marco Ferrando gives a detailed account of the split with the PRC.
