Socialist Workers Organization

The Socialist Workers Organization is a Trotskyist organisation based in New Zealand. It is part of the International Socialist Tendency, the British Socialist Workers Party's international.

The SWO is not the only group in New Zealand based on IS politics however as there is also a group called the International Socialist Organisation. The ISO was the first IS group in New Zealand who fused with the remanants of the Communist Party of New Zealand to form the SWO. Strangely the SWO had previously been a Stalinist party which saw Albania as being socialist. The SWO has been said to maintain certain Stalinist practices.

Like its sister parties it produces a newspaper called Socialist Worker.
