→Trotskyist or Trotskyite
==Trotskyist or Trotskyite==
==Trotskyist or Trotskyite==
Adherents of Trotskyism are known by both labels. They tend - as do objective outside commentators - to use the term "Trotskyist" to refer to themselves, while the term "Trotskyite" is generally used by their enemies, in abusive contexts. The abbreviated term "Trots" is frequently used, and has connotations of contempt.

The [[4th International]] was a communist organization founded in 1938 by [[Leon Trotsky]]. Its goal was to eliminate the [[bourgeoisie]] and establish a [[dictatorship of proletariat]]s. The Fourth International was prosecuted by the Soviet Union's secret police, who assassinated Trotsky himself in 1940. The movement has had many splits and schisms. Only a few fragments survived the 1980s.
