Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index The International Communist Current is a small left communist grouping organised throughout the world. It traces its political origins to the Gauche Communiste de France which broke away from the so-called Bordogots in the early 1940s. It was dissolved in 1952 when the anticipated revolutionary wave had failed to materialise. A group sympathising with its politics was organised in the 1960s in Venezuala and from their its ideas spread. A group was formed in France in 1968 and in the early 1970s won support in a number of cities. A similar group also appeared in New York and gradually in a number of other countries. These came together to form the International Communist Current in 1975. The British group World Revolution joined the ICC at this conference. Gradually the ICC has spread to a large number of countries but its national sections remain tiny. It has also seen a number of splits from its ranks including that which formed the Internationalist Communist Group based in Belgium, and others more recently.
