	International Committee of the Fourth International - Definition, explanation
		The ICFI was formed in 1953 by groups who disagreed with the course of the Fourth International under Michel Raptis (Pablo) and Ernest Mandel.
		Despite the strong rhetoric aimed at the ISFI, some within the American SWP were in fact eager for a reconciliation, and so discouraged the committee from officially declaring itself the Fourth International.
		Those Americans who followed Robertson were expelled in 1966 for refusing to recognize the authority of the International Committee, and went on to form the International Spartacist Tendency.

		By declaring themselves the Fourth International, the "World Party of Socialist Revolution", the Trotskyists were publicly asserting their continuity not only with the Comintern but also with the earlier Socialist International and the International Workingmen's Association, the first International, which had been led by Karl Marx.
		The Fourth International was hit hard during World War II, with Trotsky assasinated and many of its European affiliates destroyed by the Nazis and several of its Asian affiliates destroyed by the Empire of Japan.
		The resulting international organization, linked closely with the International Liaison Committee for a Workers' International, is known among its adherents and national sections simply as the Fourth International, while some other Trotskyists persistently refer to it as the "Lambertist" Fourth International, after Pierre Lambert, a founding leader of the French PT.

	The Crisis of the Fourth International and the Tasks of Consistent Trotskyists
		In the documents of these international meetings, the general programmatic, strategic, and tactical lines are indicated which, as developed and brought up to date on the basis of the historical evolution of the subsequent decades, still constitute the political foundations of orthodox Trotskyism.
		The International attempted to deal with this fact by substituting a voluntarist orthodoxy for dialectical method: under the leadership of Pablo, the International acted as if the crisis of proletarian leadership were approaching resolution and the development of the International as a mass organization could be easily realized.
		The struggle within the International Committee against the capitulation of the SWP was conducted primarily by the Socialist Labour League (SLL) of Britain and the Parti Communiste Internationaliste (PCI/France; later [1963-1981] the Organisation Communiste Internationaliste [OCI/France]; since 1981, again the PCI).

	Resolution on Brazil and the Fourth International
		Brazil has been a major issue of controversy in the Fourth International (FI) as Democracia Socialista, the Brazilian section of the FI, is not only one of the largest FI sections but has been an important element in the PT since the party’s founding.
		Both the Brazilian capitalist class and international capital are well satisfied with the performance of Lula, correctly described in the main political report to the International Committee of the Fourth International as the IMF’s most diligent pupil.
		Unfortunately the international majority has not shown an inclination to learn from the mistakes of the past, a tendency underlined by the failure of the IC to take any official stand on Brazil, in effect defending the DS leadership and its policy.

	Socialist Organizer: Fourth International (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Unlike the majority of sections of the Fourth International -- which were decimated by the war, with leading members killed on battlefields, in prison camps, or in gas chambers -- the SWP emerged from the war relatively unscathed.
		The many international currents that claimed to represent Trotskyism all understood that SA, because it sought to uphold the defense of Trotskyism in the United States, was on a collision course with the USec and could not long survive as a political tendency unless it was part of an alternative international framework.
		Such a principled international class-struggle regroupment would permit the Trotskyists to break out of their relative isolation from the working class and build FI sections in the very process of building working class resistance to the ruling class drive toward heightened exploitation and war.

	WSWS : About the ICFI
		The International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI) is the leadership of the world socialist movement, the Fourth International founded by Leon Trotsky in 1938.
		In all countries the sections of the International Committee fight to unite the world working class in a common struggle for social equality.
		Inasmuch as this failure has been demonstrated over several decades on an international scale, one is led inescapably to search for its objective causes -- both in the socio-economic environment within which the trade unions now exist and, even more fundamentally, in the essential nature of the trade unions themselves.

	Fourth International - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Trotskyism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The International Secretariat of the Fourth International organised an international conference in 1946, and then World Congresses in 1948 and 1951 to assess the expropriation of the capitalists in Eastern Europe and Yugoslavia, the threat of a Third World War, and the tasks for revolutionaries.
		The International Committee of the Fourth International was established by several sections of the International as an alternative centre to the International Secretariat, in which they felt a revisionist faction led by Michel Pablo had taken power.
		This International derives from the 1963 reunification of the majorities of the two public factions into which the FI split in 1953: the ISFI and the ICFI.
