In the book “1968” Patrick Rambeau tried to reconstruct the events of distant May 1968. This era is now relevant again due to the growth of the anti-globalization movement, which is inspired by the youth revolutions of '68. Without taking sides, the author creates an impressive chronicle, showing what is happening through the eyes of students, their parents, police officers, deputies, de Gaulle, Pompidou, Aragon, Sartre and Mitterrand; takes readers to the Sorbonne, to Nanterre, to the barricades, to the commissariats, to the barracks, to the presidential office in the Elysee Palace, to scandalous government meetings, under the glass roofs of the striking Billancourt. “The beach is under the cobblestones”, “Demand the impossible”, “It is forbidden to prohibit” - these slogans are not forgotten by the new generation of rebels.
