View Full Version : Trotskyist news sources?



Questionable
26th February 2012, 22:56
Hello all. After reading more socialist literature and researching on the internet, I've decided my sympathies lie along the Trotsky line of thinking. I don't think Stalin is this evil boogeyman, but I view his policies and actions as inept compared to Trotsky's.

Anyway, I'm not trying to start a debate. I just want to know if there are some good Trotsky news sources out there on the web? I still enjoy reading Red Phoenix, even though it's a Marxist-Leninist blog, but I want to know if there is anything out there resembling it, except from a Trot perspective. I'm aware that Socialist Worker supports Trotsky, but are there any others? Perhaps not even explicitly Trotskyist, but just Leninist?

Again, not looking to start a debate, and I mean no disrespect to M-Ls here. I personally think there's something to be learned from all Marxist theoreticians, even Stalin, and I'll still continue to read Red Phoenix since I think it has a lot of interesting viewpoints.

The CWI, organisation I'm in.

http://www.wsws.org/

World Socialist Website. First rate economic analyisis. I don't agree w/all their stuff and they're a bit sectarian but important resource.

The IMT site. Some good stuff.

The ISO paper. Comes out once a week, I believe.

Yeah, Socialist World is good, also their monthly magazine Socialism Today which you can read free online

wsws is good for historical articles, bit dodgy occasionally on some of their current analysis. The IMT site is good for history, not really looked at it for news.

Alas, SW hard copies are monthly now. The website updates constantly, though.

I recommend Workers Vanguard and the other ICL publications. Their website is:
