Also publishes Young Socialist.

Self-Description: Support Castroite liberation groups. Publish Cuban speeches. Claims to prefer Lenin to Trotsky where the two disagree.

Comments: SWP practice is consistent with orthodox Trotskyism except where Trotskyist orthodoxy would prevent SWP from tailing a national struggle which SWP sees fit to support. Extreme opportunists. Competes with DSA and social democracy. Largest group on this list.


Workers World Party

Workers World
55 W. 17th Street
New York, NY 10010


Comments: Different from SWP only in that WWP attempts to co-opt elements of Maoism into its Trotskyism, while SWP only attempts to co-opt support for non-communist national struggles. Extreme opportunists.
