libertarian socialism

No, the Menshies were "right wing socialists." The "Left wing communists" were council communists who supposed worker's control as against party rule and opposed participation in bourgeous parliaments. --jks

 Libertarian socialists support socialism but not an authoritarian state of
the Soviet sort. Examples: Pannekoek and Goerter, the "left wing communists"
Lenin accused of infantile distorders; Rosa Luxemburg and the Spartakists;
arguably Marx himself. --jks
