The future belongs to socialism, the present belongs to organising for its victory by Daniel Gluckstein

Description

Contributions for the international conference of organisations of the Organising Committee for the Reconstitution of the Fourth International (OCRFI – CORQI) – 6, 7 and 8 November 2026

Three documents from 2025 reflect on the current global situation and the tasks of the Fourth International. One deals with the organisational criteria which, for Trotskyist organisations, « justify moving towards the reconstitution of the Fourth International ». The second answers the questions: « Is widespread militarisation a new stage in the crisis of capitalism? What is the way forward for humanity? » The third affirms: « The future belongs to socialism, the present belongs to organising for its victory ». These three documents, developed over a period of six months, share the same analysis of the international situation.

A contribution to the preparatory discussion for the November 2026 conference of the organisations of the Organising Committee for the Reconstitution of the Fourth International (OCRFI – CORQI), it will be of interest to all activists and organisations who are willing to fight for emancipatory socialism.
