The International Socialist Organisation (ISO) is a Trotskyist organisation in Zimbabwe. It is part of the International Socialist Tendency (IST) led by the British Socialist Workers Party. It produces a newspaper called ''Socialist Worker''. It opposes both the Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) and the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) and claims to be under state harassment:
However in 2011, members of the ISO, including its general coordinator, along with several other activists were arrested and tortured by the Zimbabwean police for hosting a meeting discussing the Arab Spring.〔(Zimbabwe socialists tortured ) Socialist Worker (US). (accessed 2011-03-03)〕 == Relationship with the MDC == The ISO joined the MDC from its inception in 1999. This move was based upon the tactic of entryism. The ISO viewed the MDC as a united front, with the aim "Firstly to facilitate maximum unity between revolutionaries and reformists" and "Secondly ... as a platform to increase the influence of revolutionary politics and to build a revolutionary organisation". The union was described as "Kuchaya mapoto, husahwira hwe mubhawa", that is like the temporary marriages of migrant workers enter into in rural areas in the absences of their wives. Munyaradzi Gwisai, the general coordinator of the ISO,〔 became an MDC member of parliament for Highfield constituency (where many politicians live). The relationship between the ISO and the MDC leadership was acrimonious, for example MDC leaders made a series of personal attacks on Gwisai following a publication of an ISO paper blaming the party's declining fortunes on "the highjacking of the party by the bourgeoisie" and failure to deal with the question of land reform. The ISO was finally expelled from the MDC in April 2002. They stood for re-election in the Highfield constituency against the MDC but failed to get re-elected. The ISO blames the failure of the MDC to over throw President Robert Mugabe's regime on their lack of radicalism and their shift rightwards and the fact that this has allowed ZANU-PF to gain by left posturing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「International Socialist Organisation (Zimbabwe)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
