The Declaration was drafted by Dionys Mascolo, Maurice Blanchot and Jean Schuster. It stated that the cause of the Algerians was the cause of all free men, and that the struggle was striking a decisive blow to the cause of colonialism. The vast majority of the signatories belonged to the French Left. The signatories included figures from a variety of political and cultural movements, such as Marxism, existentialism, surrealism, and a number of figures associated with the Nouveau Roman and New Wave literary and cinematic trends.
There were later signatories to the declaration, 246 in total.[2]
