The World Congress of
the International Marxist Tendency met in Barcelona at the end of July. The 350
delegates and visitors could feel that after decades of preparation, of
defending the ideas of Marxism against the attacks of the bourgeois, the
reformists and revisionists, these are now being vindicated by events. The
affiliation of four new sections from Brazil, Iran, El Salvador and Switzerland
added to this feeling.

Every year the IMT organises
a Congress, a Conference or a World School. This year’s event was a School and
it followed on from the successes of previous years. More countries were
represented, new areas have been opened up, and the general feeling is one of a
tendency that is going forward, growing in numbers and sections.

In July the International Marxist Tendency organised its 2006 World Congress, with comrades attending from over 30 countries. Here we provide a report on the main discussions held, in particular World Perspectives, China and Organisational tasks. It was by far the biggest attended and most successful congress of the Tendency. In the coming period we will also be publishing the documents voted by the Congress.

The International
Marxist Tendency organised an international school in Barcelona this summer.
Around 250 comrades gathered from all over the world. There were key
discussions on Venezuela, Cuba, China and many other questions. Victor Rios, a
veteran of the Spanish communist movement and now an advisor to Chavez spoke.
The mood was one of enthusiasm and optimism for the future. |

This book by Ted Grant is a unique contribution to the history of
British Trotskyism. It begins with the debate on Trotskyism in the
British Communist Party in 1924 and ends with the break-up of the
Revolutionary Communist Party in 1949 and the beginning of more than
thirty years of work within the Labour Party. Ted Grant was the founder
and political leader of the “Militant Tendency”, which haunted the
Labour leadership, and was eventually expelled along with the Militant
editorial board in 1983. A postscript by Rob Sewell, who was the
national organiser for the Militant throughout the 1980s, brings this
unique history up to date. |
