The Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM) was an international communist organization founded in France in March 1984 by 17 various Maoist organizations around the world.[1] It sought to "struggle for the formation of a Communist International of a new type, based on Marxism–Leninism–Maoism".[2] The RIM appears to be defunct as are many of the founding organizations and many changed their names over the years, or have dropped active armed struggle.

Marxism–Leninism–Maoism
From 1993 onwards the RIM believed that the experience gained from the People's War in Peru enabled the International Communist Movement "to further deepen [their] grasp of the proletarian ideology and on that basis take a far-reaching step, the recognition of Marxism–Leninism–Maoism as the new, third and higher stage of Marxism". This formulation caused a split in the Maoist movement, with the continued adherents of Mao Zedong Thought leaving RIM and congregating around the International Conference of Marxist–Leninist Parties and Organizations.[3]

The Communist Party of Nepal (Masal) left over differences of political line, but a much larger group, the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre), is a member. Indian member organizations amalgamated into the Communist Party of India (Maoist). Of the RIM's one-time participating member organizations, the Maoist Communist Party (Turkey) and the Shining Path are currently engaged in armed conflict. The RIM also supported the revolutionary wars led by the Communist Party of the Philippines and by the Communist Party of India (Maoist).
A World to Win magazine
A World to Win was published from 1981 to 2006 as the unofficial magazine of the Committee of RIM (CoRIM). Communist Party of India (Maoist) leader Ajith (Murali Kannampilly) was the editor of the magazine.[4]
Criticism
The Revolutionary Communist Party of Britain (Marxist–Leninist) has criticized the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM) for what it perceives as ultra-left revisionism, characterized by dogmatism and sectarianism. The party contends that RIM’s neglect of critical Maoist concepts, such as the mass line and the theory of the new democratic revolution, alongside a focus on Eurocentrism, detracts from the effectiveness of the global revolutionary movement. This criticism points to RIM’s strategies as being out of step with the practical demands of revolutionary activity, especially in the context of the Third World's class struggle.[5]
