Ours is the Fourth International. The fourth, "Trotskyist", because the other three disappeared - by political abdication, or organisational collapse.
The Fourth International’s highest decision-making body is its World Congress. As the climax of a process of democratic discussion and election of delegates among the national sections, the World Congress determines the political line of the International as a whole on all programmatic issues.
The highest decision-making body between meetings of the World Congress is the International Committee. It is elected by the World Congress from representatives of the sections. It meets once a year.
The Bureau meets between International Committees in order to oversee the implementation of decisions. The Bureau is accountable to the International Committee for the decisions it takes.
Theses drafted by the international leadership and common resolutions of FI sections.

With Macron announcing the dissolution of the National Assembly, it is vital that the whole of the left - the parties, the unions and all the organisations of the workers’ movement - meet and mobilise. We propose that, in the towns, in the neighbourhoods and at national level, meetings take place over the next few days, to achieve unity, in the streets to resist, and in the ballot box.
