Theses on the Present Economic Crisis
From International Trotskyist No. 10, Winter-Spring 1995.
Introductory Note: This article was written during an earlier (1993) and much less severe economic crisis than that which manifested itself in 2008. Nonetheless, much of it is still relevant to today's situation. The article was written by the RTL as a proposal to the ILCC, an international organization which with the RTL was associated at the time. The ILCC adopted the article's theses in January 1994.
The article was first published in Soviet, the journal of the ILCC, in May 1994, and reprinted in International Trotskyist in 1995.
