Contemporary Trotskyism
Parties, Sex and Social Movements in Britain
Book •
John Kelly's Contemporary Trotskyism analyzes British Trotskyist organizations as hybrid formations combining elements of political parties, sects, and social movements.
The book explores organizational structures, doctrinal rigidity, entryism tactics, and the movements' engagements with trade unions and campaigns.
It pays particular attention to internal dynamics, leadership, and the movement's treatment of issues such as gender and sexuality.
Drawing on archival research and interviews, Kelly situates British Trotskyism within broader international trends and debates.
The work is aimed at scholars and activists interested in the history and sociology of the far left.
