> Communists is now the word often used to label Marxists
The leader of POUM was Andreu Nin, he was a communist, as most of the leadership in his party. That makes it a communist party, even if it was not allied with Moscow.
Marxist could mean all sorts of things: the early Marx is very different from the late Marx, so is the social democratic interpretation of Marxism.
i think that the distinction between Pro-Moscow and not Moscow based communist makes more sense, given these different gradations of Marxism.
