Confrontation was the 'theoretical journal of the Revolutionary Communist Party, first published in the summer of 1986. According to the British Library Confrontation ceased publication after its fifth issue in 1989.
The 'Theoretical journal' of the RCT seems not to have continued and it was not until summer 1986 that the RCP began producing the short lived Confrontation, described as the Party 'theoretical journal'. In addition to a range of pamphlets the principal publications of the RCP were The next step, its weekly newspaper which in the early days it described as a 'review' and later Living Marxism (later renamed LM magazine). The RCP also produced numerous leaflets, posters, newsletters and other materials for its front groups and election literature.
Almost all RCP publications were published by Junius Publications, the party's publishing company set up in late 1977.
