For a Revolutionary Left (Italian: Per una Sinistra Rivoluzionaria, PSR) was[when?] a coalition of Trotskyist parties in Italy.[1][2] Founded in 2017 to run in the 2018 Italian general election, its leader was Marco Ferrando.[3]

| Workers' Communist Party (PCL) | Communism | Marco Ferrando | |
| Left Class Revolution (SCR) | Communism | Claudio Bellotti | |
Both parties were Trotskyist, even though they adhered to different strands of Trotskyism as well as different political internationals. Moreover, both of them were for a long time factions within the multi-tendency Communist Refoundation Party (PRC) and later splinter groups of that party.
Workers' Communist Party
[edit | edit source]The PCL had its roots in the Communist Revolutionary League, active since 1979, affiliated to Proletarian Democracy (DP) since 1989[4][5][6] and finally merged into the PRC, like most of DP, in 1991. Within the PRC, the group was known as Communist Project.[7] In 2006 the group left the party and set up the PCL,[8][9] Italian section of International Socialist League.
Left Class Revolution
[edit | edit source]SCR was launched in 2014, within the PRC, as the re-boot of HammerSickle (FM), a group formed in 1986 within the youth section of the Italian Communist Party (PCI) in Ferrara, Emilia-Romagna, editing a journal under the same name.[10][11] In 1991 the group joined the PRC and was organised as an internal faction.[12][13] In 2016 SCR left the PRC and became an independent party.[14][15][16]
