Socialisme ou Barbarie
French socialist group known for their magazine of the same name
Summary
Socialisme ou Barbarie was a French-based radical libertarian socialist group of the post-World War II period whose name comes from a phrase which was misattributed to Friedrich Engels by Rosa Luxemburg in the Junius Pamphlet, but which probably was most likely first used by Karl Kautsky. It existed from 1948 until 1967. The animating personality was Cornelius Castoriadis, also known as "Pierre Chaulieu" or "Paul Cardan." Socialisme ou Barbarie is also the name of the group's journal.
