Survivre et vivre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Survivre (Survive), later renamed Survivre et Vivre (Survive and Live), was a political group founded on 27 July 1970 in Montreal, with the goals of promoting pacificism, ecology, and a new kind of science. It was headed by the French mathematician Alexander Grothendieck and later included several other well-known mathematicians such as Claude Chevalley and Pierre Samuel, as well as about 50 or 60 other members, both in North America and France.[1] From August 1970 to June 1975, they published the journal Survivre... et vivre.[2][3]
