The Workers Revolutionary Party - Revolutionary Left (Spanish language: Partido Revolucionario de los Trabajadores-Izquierda Revolucionaria. PRT-IR) was a Spanish Trotskyist political organization, formed in the summer of 2002 as a result of the merger of the Workers Revolutionary Party (PRT) and the Revolutionary Left (IR). Organizing the struggle for socialism was the main goal of the formation. It was the official section in Spain of the International Workers' League - Fourth International (IWL).
