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.
