Abstract: A class of Riemann-Cartan G"odel-type space-times are examined in the light of the equivalence problem techniques. The conditions for local space-time homogeneity are derived, generalizing previous works on Riemannian G"odel-type space-times. The equivalence of Riemann-Cartan G"odel-type space-times of this class is studied. It is shown that they admit a five-dimensional group of affine-isometries and are characterized by three essential parameters $ell,m^2,omega$: identical triads ($ell,m^2,omega$) correspond to locally equivalent manifolds. The algebraic types of the irreducible parts of the curvature and torsion tensors are also presented.
