摘要

摘要近年来，英国左翼最具争议的故事之一是极左翼托洛茨基主义团体革命共产党（RCP）到自由主义/逆向网络出版物Spiked！的发展轨迹！，通过《活的马克思主义》杂志。RCP演变成Spiked！记者们对其进行了一些探索，但历史学家尚未对其进行深入探索。本文认为，在RCP的历史上，红阵线是该党在20世纪90年代拒绝传统左翼思想并最终拒绝马克思主义政治的一个经常被忽视的转折点。

A Platform for Working Class Unity? The Revolutionary Communist Party’s The Red Front and the pre-history of Living Marxism/Spiked Online in the 1980s

ABSTRACT In recent years, one of the most controversial stories on the British left is the trajectory of the far left Trotskyist group, the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) to the libertarian/contrarian online publication Spiked!, via the magazine Living Marxism. The evolution of the RCP into Spiked! has been explored somewhat by journalists, but it has yet to be explored in depth by historians. This paper argues that in the history of the RCP, The Red Front is an often overlooked turning point for the party towards rejection of conventional left thinking in the 1990s and eventual rejection of Marxist politics.

期刊介绍： Contemporary British History offers innovative new research on any aspect of British history - foreign, Commonwealth, political, social, cultural or economic - dealing with the period since the First World War. The editors welcome work which involves cross-disciplinary insights, as the journal seeks to reflect the work of all those interested in the recent past in Britain, whatever their subject specialism. Work which places contemporary Britain within a comparative (whether historical or international) context is also encouraged. In addition to articles, the journal regularly features interviews and profiles, archive reports, and a substantial review section.
