Mouvement Anti-Utilitariste Dans Les Sciences Sociales
The ''Mouvement anti-utilitariste dans les sciences sociales'' (Anti-utilitarian Movement in the Social Sciences) is a French intellectual movement. It is based around the ideology of "anti-utilitarianism", a critique of economism in social sciences and instrumental rationalism in moral and political philosophy. The movement was founded in 1981 by sociologist Alain Caillé, with the establishment of its interdisciplinary monthly journal ''Revue du MAUSS'' which is still published and edited by Caillé. The journal covers topics in economics, anthropology, sociology and political philosophy from an anti-utilitarian perspective. His name is both an acronym and a tribute to the famous anthropologist Marcel Mauss. The movement works to promote a third paradigm, as a complement to, or replacement for holism and methodological individualism.Michèle Richman. 2002.

Godbout was a co-founder of ''Liberté'' (1959), the Mouvement laïque de la langue française (1962) and the Union des écrivains Québécois (1977).
