*Introduction*
*A mistaken appeal to Trotsky*
*The PTS/FT’s confusion about the nature of revolutions*
*Trotsky’s theory of permanent revolution and the nature of revolutions*
*Does the PTS/FT recognize the existence of democratic revolutions?*
*Sterile ultraleftism in theory and opportunism in practice*
A few months ago, the Trotskyist Faction (FT, of which the PTS, its
Argentinean section, is the largest and most known one) published a
polemic against the International Workers League – Fourth International
(LIT-CI). In this document, the PTS/FT criticised the tradition of
Nahuel Moreno – the most important tradition of Latin American
Trotskyism – and the positions of LIT-CI on various past and actual
world events. LIT-CI comrades published two replies to this polemic, and
we also wrote a contribution to this debate. More recently, the PTS/FT
comrade replied to these documents and in this essay, we will deal with
their arguments.
