David North, the chairman of the WSWS International Editorial Board and national chairman of the Socialist Equality Party (US), has just returned from a very successful trip to Sri Lanka. North spoke at meetings in Kandy and Colombo attended by hundreds of workers and young people. The text of the remarks, "Eighty Years of the Fourth International: The Lessons of History and the Struggle for Socialism Today," has been posted on the WSWS.



North's trip was covered extensively in the Sri Lankan media, including interviews on some of the most widely-followed TV and radio programs. This includes: I encourage you to read the lecture and the articles on the trip. David North will be speaking at meetings throughout the US, beginning with Ann Arbor (October 22) and Detroit (October 23). Other meetings are scheduled in New York, Illinois, Oregon and California.

The lessons of the Lanka Sama Samaja Party’s Great Betrayal

This series of articles published by the Socialist Equality Party (SEP) in Sri Lanka mark the 50thanniversary of its foundation in June 1968. Established as the Revolutionary Communist League (RCL), the Sri Lankan section of the International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI), itwas renamed the Socialist Equality Party (SEP) in 1996.
These articles elaborate the RCL’s principled foundations and draw the essential political lessons from the struggle for these principles over the past 50 years.
