	International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist), popularly referred to as the Spartacist League and by its critics as "The Sparts", is a Trotskyist international organisation based primarily in the United States.
		However, the League was one of the few communist groups other than the Workers World Party to hail the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 and the occupation that followed.
		In 1996 the founders of the League for the Fourth International were expelled, allegedly for maneuvering with a group from Brazil involved in bringing court suit against a trade union.

	ICL Declaration of Principles and Some Elements of Program
		The International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist) is a proletarian, revolutionary and internationalist tendency which is committed to the task of building Leninist parties as national sections of a democratic-centralist international whose purpose is to lead the working class to victory through socialist revolutions throughout the world.
		The ICL fights for “cops out of the unions.” Our fight for the principle of proletarian independence from the state is underscored by the tendency pointed out by Trotsky in his unfinished 1940 essay, “Trade Unions in the Epoch of Imperialist Decay,” for the reformist trade unions to grow ever more intertwined with the state.
		Communists seek to build the strongest possible unity of the working class against the capitalist exploiters; therefore, we oppose craft divisions in the proletariat and stand for industrial unionism, and oppose the splitting of the working class into competing unions based on different political tendencies or ethnic groupings.

	Marxism Glossary - F
		First International - The Communist League was the first international communist organization of the proletariat founded under the guidance of Marx and Engels in London early in June 1847.
		The aims of The Communist League were the overthrow of the bourgeoisie, the abolition of the old bourgeois society based on class antagonisms, and the establishment of a new society in which there would be neither classes nor private property.
		The Communist League played a great historical role as a school of proletarian revolutionaries, as the embryo of the proletarian party, and was the predecessor of the International Working Men's Association (The First International).

		The society we live in today, the capitalist society, is one where a minority of people, the capitalists, own and control the vast wealth of the world, and another minority, the real middle class, acts as managers, policemen and bureaucrats on their behalf.
		By taking power as a class, working people, as the great majority in society, would not have the need for permanent armed agents of state power, which are used by a minority to keep the majority in line, or for a system of professional politicians and their government of lies and corruption.
		The Communist League works to build a working peoples political movement often called a political party that has the support and confidence of the majority of working people, and fights for a working peoples republic.

		In the five years since leading cadres of the Spartacist League and other sections of the International Communist League were bureaucratically expelled, the SL/ICL has heaped one lie and invention upon another in its frantic attempts to discredit the Internationalist Group and the League for the Fourth International.
		The ICL line that Islamic fundamentalism is ascendant throughout the historically Muslim world, in contrast, means it has nothing to say to anti-fundamentalist youth and workers in Algeria who are confronting a bloody army-based regime locked in a civil war against Islamic fundamentalists.
		The ICL’s latest sharp turn to the right is a dramatic development: renouncing a cornerstone of Leninist politics in the midst of a war.

	The League of Nations and the Communist International
		The less the Communist International is capable of threatening the positions of capital, the more political credit is given to the Kremlin government in the eyes of French, Czechoslovak, and other bourgeoisies.
		Thus the strength of the bureaucracy, both domestic and international, is in inverse proportion to the strength of the Soviet Union as a socialist state and a fighting base of the proletarian revolution.
		The League in its defense of the status quo is not an organization of "peace", but an organization of the violence of the imperialist minority over the overwhelming majority of mankind.

	Who are the International Bolshevik Tendency?
		The International Bolshevik Tendency (IBT) is a revolutionary socialist organization founded by former cadres of the international Spartacist tendency (today the International Communist League).
		The cadres of the Fourth International outside of North America were largely annihilated or dispersed in the course of the Second World War.
		The "international Spartacist tendency" today is in no important sense politically superior to any of the dozen or more fake-Trotskyist "internationals" which lay claim to the mantle of the Fourth International.

		Sard, writing as Walter J Oakes, argued in Politics that the PAE was to be understood as allowing capitalism to achieve a level of stability by preventing the rate of profit from falling as spending on arms was unproductive and would not lead to the increase of the organic composition of capital.
		Given his international reputation Cliff was co-opted onto the leadership body of the RCP although his impact was small at the time given his limited command of English.
		Of more importance was a loose liaison with the International Socialist League in the USA and the journal of that group, New International, was distributed by the SRG until it ceased publication in 1958.

		We Trotskyists of the International Communist League fought to the end in defense of the Soviet workers state and the collectivized economy ushered in by the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917.
		Hostile from the outset to workers democracy and the fight for international extension of the revolution as the road to socialist development, Stalin’s heirs now repudiated the ideology of “socialism in one country” in the negative, in favor of increasingly open expressions of belief in the economic superiority of Western-type capitalism.
		It was at that moment in 1989 that the international Spartacist tendency became the International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist).

	ICL Renounces Puerto Rican Independence (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		For the Spartacist League in the United States, this renunciation of the call for independence for this key U.S. colony, the linchpin for U.S. military and economic domination of the Caribbean, amounts to outright capitulation before “their own” bourgeoisie.
		As Trotsky declared in the 1919 Manifesto of the Communist International:
		Yet today the ICL no longer calls for national independence for Puerto Rico, and by treating the struggle of a colonial people for national liberation as a purely democratic question, it abandons the Bolshevik understanding that the struggle against imperialist domination is a key motor force of international proletarian revolution.

		The major beneficiary of this would be the Communist Party (CP), led by Ho Chi Minh, that combined the struggle against imperialism with a social base among the peasantry, intellectuals and to a much smaller degree, the small working class.
		The party was about to split between a majority who wanted to affiliate to the Communist International (Comintern) in Moscow and a minority that did not.
		As opposition grew to Diem in the late 1950s, he increased the repression symbolized by Law 10/59 that allowed the Saigon government to jail any oppositionists under the allegation of "communist activity." By 1960, Diem’s regime was so corrupt, isolated and hated by the mass of the population that widespread opposition began to emerge.

		Meanwhile, the anarchists of Courant Alternatif (February 2002), notwithstanding their profession of opposition to all state powers, join in the chorus of appeals for an “international protection force in the Occupied Territories.” Such appeals parallel calls by Arafat and Arab bourgeois regimes for a United Nations “peacekeeping” force in the Occupied Territories.
		In a similar vein, groups like the U.S. International Socialist Organization and the British Workers Power push for a consumer boycott of Israeli exports or “divestment” of Israeli stocks.
		Such impotent appeals to Western consumers are at bottom a ruse for pressuring the imperialists to impose economic sanctions, which is the only way “divestment” can be realized.
