Socialisme ou Barbarie (French for 'Socialism or Barbarism') 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.[1][2] It existed from 1948 until 1967.[3] The animating personality was Cornelius Castoriadis, also known as Pierre Chaulieu or Paul Cardan.[4] Socialisme ou Barbarie (S. ou B.) is also the name of the group's journal.
