ResumoEste trabajo resume la polemica que tuvo lugar dentro del trotskismo norteamericano entre 1942 y 1945 acerca del caracter de la situacion europea en la posguerra y de la linea politica que debian seguir las organizaciones trotskistas en esa situacion. Los lideres del Socialist Worerks Party (SWP), siguieron linealmente lo establecido en el Programa de Transicion de Trotsky de 1938. Esta posicion “catastrofista” fue cuestionada por Felix Morrow, Albert Goldman y Jean Van Heijenoort, quienes se enfrentaron a la direccion del partido. Palabras clave: trotskismo norteamericano – revolucion socialista – posguerra europea – contrarrevolucion democratica. This paper summarizes the polemics within the American Trotskyist movement between 1942 and 1945, about the situation in post-war Europe and the political line that Trotskyist organizations should adopt in such situation. The leaders of the SWP, following literally the analysis contained in Trotsky´s Transitional Program of 1938, thought there were no possibilities for the stabilization of democratic regimes in post-war Europe. This narrow “catastrophist” view was questioned by Felix Morrow, Albert Goldman y Jean Van Heijenoort, who confronted the party leadership on this matter. Key words: American Trotskyism - socialist revolution – Post-war Europe – democratic counterrevolution.
