Chabad also signifies: (a) the branch of the chassidic movement (v. chasidus) which is rooted in an intellectual approach to the service of G-d, and which was founded by R. Shneur Zalman of Liadi; a synonym for Chabad in this sense is Lubavitch, originally the name of the township where the movement flourished 1813-1915; and (b) the philosophy of this school of chasidism.
