List of Trotskyist internationals

This is a list of Trotskyist organizations. Some of them claim to stand in the unbroken tradition of the Fourth International, which had either continuous inventory from their point of view or was subject to a re-foundation. Some of them have many similarities and overlap greatly in their orientation. Certain directions, however, who see themselves as Trotskyist, argue that the Fourth International no longer existed, and they also seek no reconstruction. Others are of the opinion that the term " Fourth International " was discredited to an extent that one has a new Fifth International found. Important distinguishing features are the relationship to social democracy and the ( ex-) Stalinism. The organizations listed differ considerably in their membership: while some of them include several thousand followers, there are also organizations that have no more than a hundred or a few dozen followers. If there are German offshoot of the organizations concerned, the German name for the particular organization was taken over.
