The French Turn describes the presence of the French Trotskyists in the French Socialist Party between 1934 and 1936. Urban violence in the 1930s in Germany and Italy led to the consolidation of fascist governments in Germany and Italy. The French Communist and Socialist parties therefore worked out a united front with French Trotskyists in an attempt to keep rightists politics at bay.
