	Entryism - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Entryism (or entrism or enterism) is a political tactic by which a smaller organisation joins a (usually hostile) larger organisation in an attempt to either gain recruits, influence or both.
		This is the classical version of entryism advocated by Leon Trotsky in his essays on "the French Turn" in which Trotskyists entered the youth wing of the French Socialist Party (the SFIO) for a brief period in the 1930s.
		Entryism is generally (but not always) done secretly and often organisations run on democratic centralist lines, but is also found in the far-right entering mainstream right-wing groups, e.g.

		But to succeed in their effort, they are relying on tactics that summon up such old-time phrases as "entryism" and "dual unionism." Many decades ago, those tactics guided an earlier left-wing movement, Communism, in its bid for world power.
		That is, if entryism didn't succeed in taking over a union local, the CP might create a rival union.
		So the CIO itself was a kind of entryism that became dualism in 1938, when the Commie-heavy CIO was booted out.

	Marxism message, Re: Mass movements and Marxist parties
		Entrysm is a tactic designed to prevent a sector of the working class or the mass movement (i.e.: the youth) to be coopted by a reformist leadership by incorporating it to a reformist party.
		Entryism is designed to last, generally, short period of times (i.e.: entryism by American Trotskyists in the American SP in the 30s, with great success).
		Classical and long term entryism is not a fraternal or united front tactic but a hostile one.

	Militant Labour - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Militant Labour was the name of the political party openly formed by members of the RSL/Militant Tendency party when they abandoned the Trotskyist tactic of entryism in 1990.
		The decision to take an open turn came after Neil Kinnock's attack on the RSL/Militant became so successful that the party could no longer effectively operate undercover in the Labour Party - selling the party's newspaper Militant was enough to get expelled.
		A minority inside the RSL/Militant - led by former leading ideologue Ted Grant opposed the open turn and continued to support entryism.

	The Case For National-Anarchist Entryism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		WE have suggested entryism as a means of revolutionary agitation in the past, most notably in 'Revolutionary Action: A Booklet For The Cadre' (The Rising Press, 1995).
		It is also possible that we could decline to a position where it is no longer viable to continue the struggle.
		Entryism, therefore, is vital for the continuation and longevity of our cause and from it comes the only possible chance of victory.

	Ross Dowson: A short biography
		However, by disposition, he identified politically with those comrades in the Worker's Party who opposed the "deep" entryism into the CCF and the liquidation of the paper as the public face of the Trotskyist movement at a time when the CCF was less than a viable and growing force.
		The concept of entryism on the basis of fraction work within a mass-based labour party with a long-term, non-split perspective was unique in the world Trotskyist movement, contrasting sharply with the "deep entryism" of the US comrades in the Socialist Party and the French comrades throughout the 1950s and early 1960s.
		Although entryism was to last only until the fall convention of the CCF in 1938, the majority of comrades wanted to continue their experience with entryism afterwards.

		As we awake from the dreary dream of entryism, we can start to see that what kept us slumbering in the last twenty five years was indeed a programme of controlled, if not quite repressive, desublimation.
		Entryism is the capture of cut and paste into photoshopped seamlessness.
		Entryism constitutes a double disavowal of sublime space.

	Entry tactic in Britain 1940s
		This article on the tactic of "entryism" or “entrism”, looks at the role that the misapplication of this tactic played in the collapse of British Trotskyism in the 1940s and early 1950s.
		The mistaken method developed in 1945-51, a period of labour government over the question of "entryism", is being repeated by centrist organisations today.
		It was he said, entryism of a "different kind from the entrism practised before the war", one based on a desire "from the inside of these tendencies to amplify and accelerate their left centrist ripening".

		Their argument was 'everybody in politics does it, we ourselves do it, why don’t you?’ My response always was that you can do it and get away with it because ‘your people’ would not be noticeable in a party meeting'.
		Others are being blocked because of their alleged entryism, ‘irregularities in recruitment’ and other flimsy pretexts or ploys.
		Sarwar was also subjected to accusation of entryism and packing meetings during the Govan selection process.

		And that is the last I will have to say about the matter, since it is their mistaken attitudes toward US imperialism and Green entryism here that concern me more than anything.
		But the Solidarity/ DSP policy of Green entryism is just as reformist and mistaken as their positions were, regarding the US attack on Yugoslavia." In fact the DSP has an orientation to the Socialist Alliance first and foremost.
		While they are not hostile to the Green Party of Australia as they have been in the past, it is simply a falsehood to state that they are conducting an "entryist" policy in the Australian Greens.

		One of the reasons Simon Reynolds became my fave critic at an impressionable age was his stuff on "entryism" in Blissed Out - the change-pop-from-the-inside ideas of bands like the KLF, Scritti, Sigue Sigue Sputnik and, yes, Win.
		He was quite disparaging of those bands but I sneakingly thought it was still quite a cool idea.
		I think my sneaking regard for entryism is nostalgia, partly, for a time when the 'alternative' and 'mainstream' were more interpenetrated, a time which crucially I wasn't actually listening to music during so the various strategies and moves of the early 80s become a kind of just-missed-it golden age for me.

		Eventually, the group became known by the name of the paper and was either referred to as Militant or the Militant Tendency.
		The Militant Tendency was, for a time in the 1980s, the largest Trotskyist organisation in Britain and, because of its practice of entryism in the Labour Party by far the best known.
		The Labour Party under Michael Foot and especially Neil Kinnock moved to purge Militant from the party and the editorial board of Militant, including Taaffe and Ted Grant were expelled.

	Spectator, The: Ethnic entryism
		The new MP faces a disciplinary procedure which may culminate in his being asked to step down after charges that he offered a political opponent 5,000 not to stand against him.
		The case confronts New Labour with the distinctly Old Labour accusations of entryism, corruption and vote-buying.
		The party which finally rooted out Militant entryism when Mr Kinnock banished the hard Left has less room for manoeuvre when it comes to the ethnic minorities.

		"Entryism" was up there with "ambition" and "desire" as the era's big buzzwords.
		This wasn't alt-rock with its imagery of bands being thrust into the spotlight in spite of themselves, of one-hit wonders affecting an image of indie purity.
		And it's a very small step from entryism to conspicuous consumption, from Scritti Politti to the Thompson Twins, from Glenn Gregory to Gordon Gecko.

	S Y N T H E S I S - The Case For National-Anarchist Entryism by Troy Southgate
		Look at it this way: much of what passes for the Far Left has no viable ideology, it has nothing to say and its ideas are completely unworkable.
		We know that we cannot presently use freedom fighters to liberate our land, so therefore we must forge a new way.
		This new way is entryism, working within society's institutions and organisations with committed revolutionaries.

	Ross Dowson A Biographical Sketch of Ross Dowson, by H. Kopyto
		It was during this time as well that the Canadian Trotskyist Movement underwent extensive experience with entryism into the CCF and later into the NDP.
		Immediately following the Second World War, the concept of entryism on the basis of working as a fraction within the CCF as a long-term, non-split perspective was finally implemented under Ross's leadership.
		When the Second World War broke out and the Trotskyist Movement was banned by the War Measures Act, many of the leaders of the Socialist Workers League (as the Trotskyist Movement became known at this time), including Earle Birney, abandoned the movement as well as Marxism.

	Independent on Sunday, The: `Rigged' election row splits CND
		The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament has been riven by allegations of entryism by the hard left after the group's chairwoman was unexpectedly ousted.
		Carol Naughton, CND's leader for the last two years, lost her post by one vote to Kate Hudson, the organisation's vice-chair, who was allegedly backed by a group of Trotskyite supporters.
		She said CND staff had already investigated the entryism claims and had found that many of the new members who voted were long-standing CND supporters.

		But the Solidarity/ DSP policy of Green entryism is just as reformist and mistaken as their positions were, regarding the US attack on Yugoslavia.
		It's lack of substantial involvement in any antiwar work has led it to entryism into the Greens, as a strategy to somehow garner some quick (and unearned) attention by activists.
		This switch to entryism in the pro-capitalist US Green Party is yet another legacy from a US Trotskyism that was unable to resist the rise of Jack Barnes.

	icBirmingham - Inquiry as Lib-Dems suspend ward party
		Councillor Jon Hunt, chairman of the Perry Barr and Ladywood party, confirmed that constituency officials had agreed to a regional office request to voluntarily suspend the party.
		He said there were serious concerns about a sudden increase in membership which could be a sign of entryism - members attempting to pack meetings with their friends in order to gain selection for council seats.
		Entryism was one of the charges levelled a week ago against Coun Talib Hussain, who was sacked from the council cabinet.

		Entryism became a respectable tactic in the 1930s because Trotskyism (and Trotsky) took the view that it did not matter how they grew in influence but only that they could reach the masses in some form or other whatever the historical circumstances.
		The CWI (even though they have become more open and left the labourist type parties in a certain number of countries) are the historical propagators of the more modern form of entryism (of Pablo) called "sui generis" (i.e.
		But in this case, it was the adventurist raiding operation type of entryism first proposed by Trotsky himself in his French Turn (1934-5) where he proposed short term entryism to "plumer la vollaille" (pluck the chickens) of organisations to which they were politically opposed in order to raid and destabilise them (e.g.

	Against Trotskyist entrism, factionalism, and mechanical reasoing
		As a result, he eventually fell back into entryism and other forms of conciliation of reformism.
		If the Trotskyist groups weren't supposed to be external factions of the Stalinist parties anymore, now the French Trotskyists were to become an internal faction of the French social-democratic party (the SFIO), and Trotskyists everywhere were supposed to imitate this tactic.
		In the first years, a few of the Trotskyist groups would grow as a result of entrism, others suffered fiasco, and some, like most Spanish Trotskyists, were read out of the official Trotskyist movement for refusing to practice entrism.

	Marxism message, "Watermelon Greens" and Entryism
		Having been with Jose Perez and Barry Shepard as they clamored for an entry into the 'working class' back with the now deceased SWP in the late '70s and '80s, it's really no surprise to see the newest repeat of this nonsense in the form of arguing for entryism into the Green Party.
		They argue that Peter Camejo is actually successfully engaged in a stealth campaign of entryism that should be a model for all of us Reds.
		This is the strategy that the US group Solidarity is currently carrying out with great conviciton.
