TheSocialist Revolutionary Party (French:Parti socialiste révolutionnaire, PSR) was a FrenchBlanquistpolitical party founded in 1898 and dissolved in 1901. It is indirectly one of the founding factions of theFrench Section of the Workers' International (SFIO), founded in 1905.
The PSR was the new name given, in 1898, to theCentral Revolutionary Committee (CRC), a blanquist party founded in 1881. The CRC had been strengthened by the formation of theRevolutionary Communist Alliance (ACR) by dissident members of the reformistRevolutionary Socialist Workers' Party (POSR). Due to the support of the ACR, the PSR became the second largestMarxist political party in France behind theFrench Workers' Party.
The PSR was led byÉdouard Vaillant, who sought to be the middle ground between moderate socialists (Jean Jaurès,Paul Brousse) and Marxists (Jules Guesde,Paul Lafargue). The PSR, however, later merged with theFrench Workers' Party (POF) to form theSocialist Party of France (PSdF). The PSdF was one of the two founding members of theFrench Section of the Workers' International (SFIO) in 1905.
