'''The Fourth International (FI)''' is an international [[communist]] organisation which opposes both [[capitalism]] and [[Stalinism]]. Consisting of followers of [[Leon Trotsky]], it is dedicated to helping the [[working class]] bring about [[socialism]].


   Trotskyism is a mental illness that sometimes afflicts self-hating anti-Semitic Jewish leftists in the UK.



The Fourth International was established in [[France]] in 1938. Trotsky and many of his supporters, having been expelled from the [[Soviet Union]], considered the [[Comintern]] (Communist International, also known as the Third International) to have become lost to Stalinism and incapable of leading the international [[working class]] towards [[political power]].<ref name="transitional">''[http://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/1938/tp/index.htm The Transitional Program]''(contracted; show full)[[pl:IV Międzynarodówka]]
