The Committee for a Workers' International (CWI) (Spanish: Comité por una Internacional de los Trabajadores, or CIT; French: Comité pour une internationale ouvrière or CIO) is an international association of Trotskyist political parties and organisations. The present organisation was founded following a split in the former incarnation over its political direction and focus.
History[edit]
In 2018 and 2019, a dispute within the predecessor Committee for a Workers' International (1974) developed around the questions of socialism and identity politics.[1]
One group founded the “In Defence of a Working Class and Trotskyist CWI” (IDWCTCWI) faction, which considers itself a continuance of the original CWI (though this is disputed).[2]
