In
The Junius Pamphlet written from jail in 1915, Rosa
Luxemburg had said that the choice before mankind was
between barbarism and socialism. Liberal opinion would
contest this, arguing that the barbarism that marked
the two world wars and the period in between was unrelated
to capitalism; indeed the liberal tendency that comes
to the fore under capitalism, it would claim, fought
against the barbarism of that period.
