Workers' Fight is a small Trotskyist group in England, formed in 1987,[1] linked to the French Lutte Ouvrière. The group focuses on activity in large factory workplaces, rather than trade union or community-based work. They publish the journal Class Struggle on a bi-monthly basis.[2]
Historical use of name
[edit]- Another group named Workers' Fight split from the Workers International League in 1998, publishing two editions of a newspaper of the same name before disintegrating.
- Workers' Fight was the publication of the Revolutionary Socialist League, in the period when it was led by C. L. R. James in the late 1930s. A new collected edition of this paper was recently issued in Sweden.
- Workers' Fight was also the eponymous publication of the group now known as the Alliance for Workers' Liberty. It appeared for a short period in 1967-1968 before the group joined the International Socialists (IS) as a faction; the group was expelled from IS in 1971 and was again known as Workers' Fight until its merger with Workers Power to form the International-Communist League in 1975.[3]
