By mid-1933, an irresistible split took shape in the SFIO between the Marxist majority of the party and the right - wing neo - socialist group led by Marcel Dea , Adrien Marche and Barthelemy Montagnon . At the July congress of the SFIO Dea, Marche and Montagnon presented their concepts [1] . The ideas of corporatism , orientation toward the middle strata (peasantry, the urban petty bourgeoisie, industrial and technical personnel), harsh anti-communism , and calls for "overtaking fascism" [2] were sharply rejected. The speech of the mayor of Bordeaux Marche was described as "terrible." After the November meeting of the leadership of the SFIO Dea, Marche, Montagnon, Renaudel were expelled from the party.
By the end of 1933, PSdF was established (the name looked controversial, since neo-socialism was not correlated with the real heritage of Jean Jaures ). The publication became the publication of Renaudel Vie socialiste ( "Socialist Life" ). The most active organizations arose in Paris and Bordeaux - influenced, respectively, by Dea and Marche. The number of parties slightly exceeded 20 thousand people.
In February 1934, the neo-socialists were represented in the government - Adrien Marche was included in the anti-crisis cabinet of Gaston Doumergue as Minister of Labor. He conducted a course of stimulating the economy through the development of a system of public works [3] .
In 1935, the PSdF merged with two small socialist parties into the Socialist Republican Union (URS). In 1936, the URS joined the Popular Front . The neo-socialists organized a massive campaign in support of their “French Plan” [4] , similar to the Mussolini corporatist system . However, this program has not been developed.
A more powerful force in a similar direction was the French People’s Party [5] . However, the neo-socialists ranked themselves as Social Democrats and at that time had not yet entered into a direct alliance with Dorio, even with an obvious coincidence of positions.
The ideas of neo-socialism and the legacy of PSdF were discredited by the collaboration of Dea and Marche in the 1940s, although a number of party leaders took part in the Resistance .
