ISA was founded by sections on one side of a split in the Committee for a Workers' International (CWI).
History
In 2018 and 2019, a dispute within the Committee for a Workers' International developed around the questions of socialism and identity politics.[1]
One group founded the “In Defence of a Working Class and Trotskyist CWI” (IDWCTCWI) faction, which considers itself a continuance of the original CWI, using the same name.[2]
A second group, in support of the majority of the CWI's International Executive Committee, later renamed itself International Socialist Alternative and also considers itself the continuance of the original CWI.[2][3]
Rosa campaign
The Rosa campaign is an international socialist feminist campaign named after Rosa Luxemburg and Rosa Parks aims to build the socialist-feminist wing of the Labour movement.[4] 25 November is the International Day Against Violence Against Women, which Rosa marked in 2021 with demonstrations in at least two cities. [5][6] In Taiwan the occasion was marked by an ISA demonstration in support of Peng Shuai, who disappeared after accusing former Chinese vice premier Zhang Gaoli of sexual abuse.[7]
