		The most prominent section of the international is in the United States, and there are smaller sections in Mexico, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, South Africa, Australia, Greece and the United Kingdom.
		The origins of the group are to be found in a group of left wing youth recruited to the American Socialist Workers Party in the late 1950's from the led by Max Shachtman which was then about to dissolve in order to join the Socialist Party USA.
		Particular issues in dispute included the character of the Cuban revolution (characterized by the majority as a "healthy workers' state") and proper orientation towards the Civil Rights movement (where the majority attitude was that of uncritical uspport from afar).

		Among the largest Trotskyist organisations today are the Socialist Workers Party and the Socialist Party (formerly Militant) in Great Britain, Lutte Ouvrière and the Ligue communiste revolutionnaire in France, the International Socialist Organization in the United States, and the Partido Obrero in Argentina.

		As the second imperialist world war approached, the Fourth International stood at its post, fighting for unconditional defense of the USSR against imperialist attack and for the revolutionary overthrow by the proletariat of the Stalinist bureaucracy that was a mortal danger to the workers state.
		This is the case of the “Liaison Committee for a Workers International” of Pierre Lambert’s French PT (Workers Party); the “Committee for a Workers International,” led by Peter Taaffe’s Socialist Party in Britain (formerly the Militant Labour tendency); and the Latin America-based International Workers League of the followers of the late Nahuel Moreno.
		An offshoot of the Altamira tendency, the “CBCI” (Bolshevik Current for the Fourth International) made up of the Argentine PBCI and the Brazilian LBI, are advisors to the pro-police clique used by the bourgeois state against the Trotskyist LQB in Volta Redonda.

		I had only begun to rethink the very early (First Three Congresses) of the Communist International and, for example, refer positively (in passing) to Gramsci in a way I would not do today.I am a bit harsh on the 1960's counter-culture, which by then was already all but dead.
		Lenin's own head-on confrontation with the Bolshevik Party itself in April, 1917, moreover, demonstrated the extent to which even that organization was susceptible to bourgeois social pressures, a susceptibility which did not fail to manifest itself in the massive degeneration of the party apparatus in power in the 1921-27 period and thereafter.
		The International initially founded by figures of the stature of Lenin and Trotsky, and the plausible leadership represented by a Levi, a Gramsci or a Rosmer, became within a few years the International of Stalin, Manuilsky, Bela Kun, Thaelmann, Togliatti, Thorez and Browder.

	Paul Flewers: Stalinism and Spain - RH (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Despite the commitment to ‘socialism in one country’, Stalinism is an international force.
		The thrust of the trials – that Stalin’s opponents in the Soviet Union were conspiring with the exiled Trotsky on behalf of the Fascist states, was largely for external consumption.
		Ever since Stalin promulgated his dogma of ‘socialism in one country’, the parties of the Communist International had steadily become local agencies of Soviet diplomacy, not leading the fight for workers’ power but attempting to pressurise their ruling classes into establishing friendly relations with the Soviet Union.

		Beginning in 1975 the London Spartacist Group set out to systematically probe and polemicise with the myriad of groups and grouplets which populate the asteroid belt to the left of the centrist Pabloist IMG and the left-reformist "state capitalist" I.S./SWP.
		In the WSL, "international work" is mainly an extra-curricular activity, and at least some of its international connections have been made without directives by the NC by one comrade who uses his holidays to make political contacts outside this tight little island.

	Resignation from IBT
		I must confess to being disquieted that the international leadership of the organisation is now effectively the leadership of the PRG, or people trained in its organisational conceptions (whatever my disagreements with Jim C, I do not believe he would have supported the current IS’s edict recommending non-discussion of my document).
		James Robertson is one of the founders of, and for many years the dominant leader of, the Spartacist League of the United States (SL/US) and its international tendency, the international Spartacist tendency (iSt).
		Revolutionary Tendency (RT), the expelled left-wing minority tendency that waged a political struggle in the American Socialist Workers Party (SWP) against its leadership’s capitulation to Castroism in Cuba, and general tendency to ‘tail’ after Stalinists and other non-revolutionary forces, rather than fight for a revolutionary programme.

	Popular Front - Critique of Spartacism
		The IBT is a splinter group from the Spartacists, who are nowadays widely known and loathed as one of the most bizarre, unsavoury and cultist organisations on the international left.
		The paradox of the iSt is that it had inherited from the RT a position on the 'Russian question', by means of Cuba, that was uniquely correct in the ostensibly Trotskyist movement.
		Its explanation of the Spartacists' degeneration is apolitical and unsystematic, and locates the cause in the personal corruption of individuals, not the political break of the organisation from Trotskyism.

		Probably no professed Trotskyist tendency has sections in more countries than the USFI, but they are far from the most leftwing of the professed Trotskyist tendencies.The USFI seem to be bad at putting links to their siblings at their websites.
