Socialist Workers Party

The Socialist Workers Party (SWP) is a socialist party in the United States. The SWP began as a group which, because it supported Leon Trotsky over Soviet leader Joseph Stalin, was expelled from the Communist Party USA. After the 1980s, the party abandoned Trotskyism and fully embraced Castroism. Since the 1930s, it has published The Militant as a weekly newspaper. It also maintains Pathfinder Press.
