Are you a communist? Then get organised with the International Marxist Tendency (IMT)! 

The IMT is a revolutionary communist organisation with groups in over 40 countries. We base ourselves on the ideas of Marx, Engels, Lenin and Trotsky, and strive to build a single, world party of the working class, with the ultimate goal of overthrowing capitalism and constructing a communist future.

What is communism? A society free of social classes and exploitation, where poverty, the state, and all forms of oppression have been eliminated, in which the means of production (industry, offices and land) are collectively owned and democratically run by ordinary people in order to fulfil our needs. A world where the bestial struggle for survival, and domination of man by man, will finally come to an end.

By contrast, capitalism demands the endless pursuit of profit by a parasitic minority, wrung out of the blood and sweat of the majority. And today, the system is in its deepest-ever crisis. 

Poverty, repression, war and climate catastrophes are daily realities of life. A handful of bosses, bankers and politicians enrich themselves to an obscene degree, leaving us with crumbs, and denying us a dignified future. Imperialist domination subjects billions to destruction, displacement and mediaeval living conditions.

These are symptoms of a rotten society, ripe for overthrow.

It is little wonder that millions of people are drawing radical conclusions. The working class is beginning to organise and fight back to defend its interests. Meanwhile, the banners of Marxism, socialism and communism have never been more relevant and popular, particularly with the youth.

We cannot wish communism into being; we cannot fight for it as isolated individuals; and the capitalists will never give up their power and privileges voluntarily. It is necessary for communists to study theory and master Marxist ideas; and also to get organised to put these ideas into practice. 

For this, we draw particular inspiration from the example of the October Revolution of 1917, in which the working class under the leadership of the Bolshevik Party overthrew capitalism in Russia and began the task of socialist reconstruction.

If you share our objectives, then get in touch today and find out more about how you can get involved. With a presence in over 40 countries around the world, there is a good chance there are IMT comrades near you. If we lack a presence where you are based, we can offer advice and resources on building new communist cells in your workplace, campus, college, school or community.

There is no time to waste and a world to win. Join the IMT and help us fight for communism in our lifetimes!
