Revolutionary Communist Group (Lebanon)

The Revolutionary Communist Group (RCG; Arabic: المجموعة الشيوعية الثورية | Tajammu' al-Shuyu'i al-Thawri) is a Trotskyist organisation in Lebanon, associated with the reunified Fourth International.

History

The GCR was founded in the 1970s as a full 'section' of the Fourth International. The 2003 World Congress of the International reorganised it as a sympathising group, reflecting a decline in the GCR's membership.

The organisation contributes to International Viewpoint and Inprecor.
