'''''Inprecor''''' is a multilingual monthly [Marxist](/source/Marxist) [magazine](/source/magazine) published by the [reunified Fourth International](/source/reunified_Fourth_International). Its name is a contraction of '''In'''ternational '''Pre'''ss '''Cor'''respondence and indicates that the magazine translates articles and letters from revolutionaries around the world.

''Inprecor'' was established by the [Third International](/source/Third_International) in the wake of the [Russian Revolution](/source/Russian_Revolution_of_1917) to allow communists to read the documents and thoughts of their comrades around the world.  The Third International closed ''Inprecor'' in July 1938, replacing it with ''World News and Views''.

After [World War II](/source/World_War_II), [Ernest Mandel](/source/Ernest_Mandel) successfully proposed that the [Fourth International](/source/Fourth_International) assumed responsibility for the production of ''Inprecor''. Since 1973, four parallel editions have been produced by the [United Secretariat of the Fourth International](/source/United_Secretariat_of_the_Fourth_International): in French [https://web.archive.org/web/20080721002719/http://orta.dynalias.org/inprecor/home ''Inprecor''], German [https://www.inprekorr.de Inprekorr], Spanish [https://web.archive.org/web/20080914032348/http://www.puntodevistainternacional.org/ ''Punto de Vista Internacional''] and English [http://www.internationalviewpoint.org ''International Viewpoint''].

In  1977, the United Secretariat merged the [English language](/source/English_language) edition of ''Inprecor'' with ''[Intercontinental Press](/source/Intercontinental_Press)'', edited by [Joseph Hansen](/source/Joseph_Hansen_(socialist)). The new publication, 'Intercontinental Press/Inprecor', was based in the New York offices of the [Socialist Workers Party (US)](/source/Socialist_Workers_Party_(US)). After Hansen's death, political differences between the SWP and the United Secretariat grew to the point where the SWP leadership took control of the magazine, renaming it {{'}}''Intercontinental Press''{{'}} and eventually closing the magazine. In 1982 the United Secretariat reestablished an English-language edition of ''Inprecor'', ''[International Viewpoint](/source/International_Viewpoint)'', which is edited in Europe.
