Revolutionary Communist Papers were the 'theoretical journal' of the Revolutionary Communist Tendency/Revolutionary Communist Party published from March 1977, shortly after the founding of the RCT until late 1981, shortly after it changed its name to the RCP. The RCP did not create another 'theoretical journal' until 1986 with the shortlived Confrontation, which lasted only until 1989. Other party publications included The next step (launched as a monthly in December 1979) and Living Marxism, published from late 1988.
The list below is compiled from a variety of sources.[1]
