Our website is admittedly a bit old-fashioned. For those coming across the Communist Left for the first time, navigating the thousands of articles and entries in order to distinguish the essential from the non-essential can be a daunting task. The following serves as a guide of where to start and will be updated as and when necessary. Follow the hyperlinks to access different sections of the website.
The Communist Workers' Organisation (CWO) is the UK affiliate of the Internationalist Communist Tendency (ICT). Our political roots go back to the internationalists who founded the Communist Party of Italy (PCd'I) in 1921, but were expelled from that party by the degenerating Communist International, and managed to regroup outside of it. Today the ICT exists as a specific and identifiable tendency toward the future revolutionary party.
For Communism – this pamphlet is an introduction to the politics of our tendency, and is the first text we recommend to new contacts.
Platform – the ICT is made up of members and organisations which adhere to a common platform. It outlines our method and our political framework.
If you agree with the bulk of these two documents, it is safe to say you are on a similar political wavelength to us.
Aurora – the broadsheet of the CWO for interventions amongst the working class.
Revolutionary Perspectives – the theoretical journal of the CWO.
There are a number of books and pamphlets that we have also produced, many of which you can access online for free. To see what is currently in stock and what is out of print, check our catalogue.
You can find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Telegram and YouTube. We also have a regularly updated blog on libcom.
You may come across us at protests, demonstrations, pickets and various events. Our public meetings are generally advertised here and/or on our social media. If you agree with what we are saying, contact us at uk@leftcom.org. A communist organisation worth the name cannot be built just behind a computer!
In Times of Lockdown: How to Contact and Work Towards Joining the CWO
If you are not in the UK, the ICT has affiliate organisations and sympathisers across the world. In Italy there is Partito Comunista Internazionalista (PCInt) which publishes Battaglia Comunista and Prometeo, in Germany there is Gruppe Internationalistischer KommunistInnen (GIK) which publishes Germinal and Sozialismus oder Barbarei, in the USA there is the Internationalist Workers' Group (IWG) which publishes Internationalist Notes, and in Canada there is Klasbatalo which publishes Mutiny / Mutinerie. The two North American affiliates publish 1919. Our comrades in France publish Bilan et Perspectives.
Help us build the Internationalist Communist Tendency!
The Communist Workers’ Organisation is (unsurprisingly!) a not-for-profit organisation. We have no so-called “professional revolutionaries”, nor paid officials. Our sole funding comes from the subscriptions and donations of members and supporters. Anyone wishing to donate (to “Prometheus Publications”) can now do so safely using the Paypal button below.
Subscriptions to Revolutionary Perspectives (3 issues) and Aurora (at least 4 issues) are:
Take out a supporter’s sub by adding £10 (€12) to each sum. This will give you priority mailings of Aurora and other free pamphlets as they are produced.
Publications. CWO publications are not copy-righted and we only ask that those who reproduce them acknowledge the original source on our website www.leftcom.org. Purchasing any of the publications listed on this site or in our various documents can be done in several ways:
