The history of revolutionary sects in France has not been written, but it may be surmised that of all of them, the most important, through the influence it exercised, was that which crystallized around Socialisme ou Barbarie (SOB), from 1949 to 1965.
The bookstore --founded by Pierre Guillaume, a former militant of Socialisme ou Barbarie, who moved to the subgroup Pouvoir ouvrier (along with J.-F. Lyotard and P. Souyiri)-- became in turn, in September 1967, a new informal subgroup.
The ideas of SOB, those of worker-run factories, for example, of the break with political apparatuses, of the analysis of the opposition between the "rulers" and the "ruled," exploded in May 1968 after the disappearance of the journal.

Socialisme ou Barbarie, in essence, is a kick-back pacifist (or even pacifier) recording that grows sweeter with every rotation in your CD playlist.
Socialisme ou Barbarie seems like a Mini-Me version of the 'Lab at first listen: the characteristic repetitive groove remains, but with a more scaled-back orchestration consisting of an elegantly simple juxtaposition of easy jazz and Baroque keyboard treatment.
Inspired by Muzak and Bacharach, Socialisme ou Barbarie gleans retromodern artifacts that remind us of bouffant wigs, platform shoes, and old movie themes (case in point: the aforementioned high-register-bass-cum-percussion-heavy "Vol de Jour").

Her solo album, Socialism Ou Barbarie is taken from a number of songs she had been writing on 4-track for several years.
The rudimentary chord changes and occasional droopy interventions of novice trombone, courtesy of Sadier, lend Socialism Ou Barbarie a fragile, ramshackle charm, counterpointed by the inevitable waft of fragrant chic and oblique hauteur given off by her soft, deadpan French vocals.
Although not a radical departure from her work with Stereolab, Socialism Ou Barbarie represents a refreshing change of pace and tone for 'Lab fans.

 Jean-François Lyotard [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
The project of Socialisme ou Barbarie was to provide theoretical resources to contribute to socialist revolution, critiquing other existing socialist strands (particularly Stalinism and the French communist party) as a hindrance to revolution, and with a particular emphasis on the critique of bureaucracy.
This ambivalence was reflected in Socialisme ou Barbarie's debate about whether or not to support the Algerian war of independence, fearing that its democratic and nationalistic leanings would not bring about the result they desired.
He contributed to and edited the Socialisme ou Barbarie journal, and wrote pamphlets to distribute to workers at protests and at factory gates.

 Radical Philosophy - print friendly
Lyotard was Socialisme ou Barbarie's principal spokesman on Algeria and when he republished his Algeria articles in 1989, just as the wretched of the earth came on to the streets once more and just as that country descended into the new hell from which it has yet to emerge, he was repaying an old debt.
Yet it might be more accurate to say that Socialisme ou Barbarie confirmed views that he had already formed.
And let's choose an extravagant personal adventure.' In 1952, he left with his wife and child to teach in a lycee in Constantine, apparently believing that Algeria was the end of the world and that he could peacefully bury himself there.

 Monade : Socialisme ou Barbarie: The Bedroom Recordings - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Indeed, most of Socialisme ou Barbarie is pretty and mellow; while this gives the album cohesion, it also means that some of the weaker, more repetitive tracks like "Enfin Seule" and "Sunrise Telling" tend to fade into the background.
Monade's full-length debut, Socialisme ou Barbarie: The Bedroom Recordings, collects Laetitia Sadier's recordings both with and without Pram's Rosie Cuckston.
Despite the fact that these songs were created over a period of six years and in between Sadier's Stereolab duties, they hang together remarkably well; as "The Bedroom Recordings" suggests, this album offers warmth and intimacy; much more, in fact, than Stereolab's later efforts, which often felt detached and overly polished.

 Monade: Socialisme ou Barbarie: The Bedroom Recordings: Pitchfork Review
Detractors of post-ETK Stereolab will likely appreciate the stripped-down (though hardly lo-fi) feel of Socialisme ou Barbarie, but I can't help but think this music could have used some of that good old silicone veneer.
Socialisme runs out of steam during the numbers that fail to emphasize its more immediate pop aspects, and also in parts that are just too smooth for their own good.
At a point in the mid-90s I was ready to declare the lounge music fad to be at once the sound of a lethargic god, and utterly worthless.

Inspired by the ideas of the French group Socialisme ou Barbarie, Solidarity went beyond S ou B to produce a remarkable journal and pamphlet series that laid the ground for the ultra-left in Britain in the 1970s and had an influence in the working class of which many groups today can only dream.
Of all the groups they examined, the one they found most attractive was the French group Socialisme ou Barbarie, led by Cornelius Castoriadis.
The publication of For Workers' Power, a selection of writings by Maurice Brinton, one of the main writers for the group who recently passed away is long overdue and required reading for serious revolutionaries.

Socialisme ou Barbarie developed a radical critique of Communism based upon the idea of workers' management and exerted a great influence upon the student-worker rebellion in Paris in May 1968.
Cornelius Castoriadis, was a philosopher, political thinker, social critic, practicing psychoanalyst, renowned Sovietologist, and economist who cofounded the now legendary revolutionary journal and group Socialisme ou Barbarie (1948-1967).

And the influence of Castoriadis and of Socialisme ou Barbarie was revealed in the actions of Daniel Cohn-Bendit and the Nanterre March 22nd movement, whose members were also students of Lefèbvre.
Concluding that the events of May 1968 represent both a beginning and an end, Hirsh examines, in the final section, the structuralist-marxism of Althusser, the debates concerning Eurocommunism, and several social movements growing from the May 1968 activism.
Furthermore, Lefèbvre's works influenced the post-May 1968 analysis of alienation in capitalist consumption by the Internationale Situationniste group, whose theories extolled revolution through guerilla theater.

There are extensive materials from the British Solidarity group, which was highly influenced by Socialisme ou Barbarie, and from the French councilist group Informations Correspondance Ouvrières, an offshoot of Socialisme ou Barbarie.
Among these was the philosopher Cornelius Castoriadis, the principal theorist of Socialisme ou Barbarie.

 Cornelius Castoriadis
Castoriadis's Socialisme ou Barbarie-era writings (1946-1965) had already been republished, along with new and previously unpublished material, by editions 10/18 between 1973 and 1979, and his magnum opus, L'Institution imaginaire de la Societe (IIS, The Imaginary institution of society), an outgrowth of his final S. ou B. writings (1964-1965), had appeared in 1975.
[3] Castoriadis made a brief attempt to reform Socialisme ou Barbarie during the May '68 student-worker rebellion.
Indeed, the "collapse of culture" in Russia was a theme already broached as early as a pre-S. ou B. text from 1947, [16] and in a 1983 lecture on Hannah Arendt, Castoriadis reminds us that, like S. ou B., she "saw very clearly that with totalitarianism we face.

This set of songs is also more consistent than Socialisme ou Barbarie, with "Paradoxale," the stylish title track, the summery "Das Kind," and the hypnotic, mercurial duet "Sensible et Extensible" holding the album together, and shorter songs like "Ditty Sweep" and "Dittyam" offering small but colorful musical sketches.

 On the Poverty of Student Life (Situationist International)
The dissolution of the “ultraleftist” Socialisme ou Barbarie group after its division into two fractions — “Cardanist-modernist” and “traditional Marxist” (Pouvoir Ouvrier) — is proof, if any were needed, that there can be no revolution outside the modern, nor any modern thought outside the reinvention of the revolutionary critique (Internationale Situationniste #9).
This supersession naturally implies the abolition of work and its replacement by a new type of free activity, thereby eliminating one of the fundamental splits of modern society: that between an increasingly reified labor and a passively consumed leisure.
Since this is not 1920, they can only be wrong (and they were already wrong in 1920).
