The International Communist League (ICL) is a multinational communist organization encompassing more than a dozen political parties and groups that espouse Marxist–Leninist–Maoist ideology, with particular affinity for the ideas of Shining Path leader Abimael Guzmán.
Membership
The foundational document of the ICL is currently ratified and endorsed by 3 communist parties and 12 pre-party formations.
History
Maoist global organizations have previously existed, such as the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM) and the International Conference of Marxist–Leninist Parties and Organizations (ICMLPO), both somewhat declining by the 2010s. During this same decade, numerous Gonzalo-adjacent organizations began springing up in Europe and Latin America.
In January 2022, communications were published on a Dutch Maoist blog, Communist International, expressing interest between multiple parties for a "Unified Maoist International Conference (UMIC)." In December 2022, it was declared that the conference resulted in the creation of a new International Communist League.
Reception
Analysis of the ICL by some of the older Maoist movement has held sharp criticism. Statements from the Communist Party of India (Maoist) and the Communist Party of the Philippines express disagreements in ideological positioning, such as universal people's war, emphasis on Chairman Gonzalo, and an alleged premature desire for a new international organization.
Numerous other smaller Marxist-Leninist-Maoist formations have also levied criticism towards the ICL.
- Communist Workers’ Union, a Swedish formation
- Construction Committee of the Maoist Communist Party of Galicia
- Revolutionary Communists, a Norwegian organization
- Communist Workers’ Union (MLM), a Colombian organization
- Maoist Communist Union, an American organization
In January 2024, several Maoist organizations in the US endorsed support for the ICL during an event hosted by Rising Tide Columbus, an Ohio-based political youth group.
The British 'Red-Flag News' Maoist grouping has expressed support for the ICL, even republishing its statements.
