Fourth International Journal: Oppose imperialist war and colonialism!

This is the 1991 edition of Fourth International, at that time the yearly theoretical journal produced by the International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI). The publication of this volume followed the launching of the war in the Persian Gulf by US imperialism. The volume contains the 1991 May Day ICFI manifesto, “Oppose Imperialist War and Colonialism!,” which announced the call for an international anti-war conference of workers and youth that was held in Berlin in November of the same year.
