About
The International Socialists (1968-1986) was a Third Camp Trotskyist group in the United States, based on the idea that revolutionary socialism means control of society from below by mass organizations of the working class. By the early 1980s the I.S. had decided that a more pluralist sort of revolutionary socialist organization was required and they merged with Workers Power and Socialist Unity to form Solidarity in 1986.
