James Cannon outlines the concepts and procedures that guide a revolutionary workers’ party.
The book is also valuable as original source material on the American revolutionary movement. It forms a part of the documentary record of an internal political fight that took place within the Socialist Workers Party in 1939-40. Leon Trotsky wrote that this book “is the writing of a genuine workers’ leader. If the discussion had not produced more than this document, it would be justified.”
