History
Faction within international Trotskyism; originated after the Second World War in Argentina around Juan Posadas (pseudonym of Homero Cristali); extended its influence to other Latin-American Trotskyist parties; its position that the victory of socialism would follow an unavoidable nuclear world war brought it into conflict with other Trotskyist currents in the early 1960s; a cult around Posadas (died 1981) as well as the extremely rich funds supporting a large-scale propaganda characterized the movement.
Content
Typescripts of texts by Juan Posadas either meant for publication or as an internal memorandum 1962-1981; drawings by Posadas 1975-1980.
