Sam Marcy split off from the Socialist Workers Party, giving rise to the Workers World Party. A collection of his articles in "Workers World" are contained in the Encyclopedia of Trotskism Online (ETOL), which is part of the Marxist Internet Archive. (https://www.marxists.org/history/etol/writers/marcy/index.htm).
I thank you, David, for your work of MIA, MIA being quite an important and valuable project. But it appears that ETOL recognizes, and properly so, that WWP springs from Trotskyist roots. WWP has a different attitude to theory in general, and to organizing style, such as how it talks to others about theory (or if it talks about the theory at all), than various other groups from the Trotskyist tradition. That's not quite the same thing as having definitively departed from Trotskyism. On 23 Jul 2024 at 8:10, David Walters via groups.io wrote: > ...
