Internacional Comunista Revolucionaria

Originally written as a reply to Monty Johnstone, a leading theoretician of the British Communist Party, this book uncovers the real ideas of Lenin and Trotsky. This new edition features a brand new introduction by Alan Woods.

For many decades, Marxism was declared to be dead. However, as the crisis of capitalism deepens, events are proving every day the vitality and correctness of these ideas.

Scientific Socialism, as developed by Marx and Engels, and later on by Lenin and Trotsky, stands alone in offering an explanation to the impasse facing humanity, as well as the way forward.

However, no body of ideas has faced such relentless slander and distortion, both by its enemies and even many of its alleged proponents.

To really understand Marxism, therefore, one must go to the source. After all, no one has explained these ideas better than these great revolutionaries.

This collection gathers together some of the fundamental texts elaborating the Marxist method. They form an inexhaustible arsenal of knowledge and a living weapon for those who want to change the world.

Leon Trotsky’s writings of 1934-36 on the French crisis, Bonapartism, the Popular Front and the workers’ militia.
