United Secretariat of the Fourth International The United Secretariat of the Fourth International (USFI) is a Trotskyist international organisation. It consists of parties such as Revolutionary Communist League in France, the International Socialist Group in the UK. The USFI was created by the 1963 merger of two factions of the Fourth International, the International Secretariat of the Fourth International and the International Committee of the Fourth International that had originally parted ways in 1953. However, a minority of the ICFI refused to join the merger and continued as a separate International Committee of the Fourth International. As well, the "reunited" Fourth International suffered a myriad of splits in the following decades.
