 Declaration of the League for the Fourth International   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
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.

 Tactical Orientation of the Faction for the Trotskyist International
The International New Course Faction is dedicated to the political regeneration and organizational reconstruction of the Fourth International, World Party of Socialist Revolution, which is currently fragmented and dominated by revisionist positions.
An international Trotskyist faction could decide to enter as a whole into one international "Trotskyist-revisionist" organization, to work primarily within a number of such organizations, to function primarily as a group of independent organizations, and so on -- all depending on the concrete conditions best favoring the struggle to regenerate the Fourth International.
The other relatively large international Trotskyist tendencies, the International Workers League (IWL), the International Militant tendency (IMT), the International Center of Reconstruction (ICR), and the International Communist Union (ICU) of Lutte Ouvrière (LO), are largely an extension of one national organization and lack, to one degree or another, a democratic internal life.

 League for the Fifth International | TI Issue 09
In January 1982 the International Workers’ League (Fourth International) (IWL) was founded at a conference of twenty delegates, held in São Paolo, Brazil and presided over by its leader, Nahuel Moreno.1 The foundation of the IWL completed the transformation of “Morenoism” into an independent and clearly defined international tendency.
The IWL is rooted in the common centrist degeneration which the Fourth International underwent between 1948-51.
An International Executive Committee meeting in April 1988 restated the position by claiming that “Argentina is the central axis of the world revolution” 22 and that “the responsibility and the central task of the whole IWL-FI and in particular of its leadership is to maintain and deepen the political turn towards Argentina”.
