'68 generation  

Définition(s)

  • A series of events located roughly on a timeline between 1956 and 1977 helped create a near-global phenomenon: the “68 generation.” Specifically, as a transnational social movement, the generation of ‘68 connects such diverse events as the Prague Spring, the Summer of Love in the United States, the Paris May, the international anti-Vietnam congress in Berlin, Zengakuren's attack on Tokyo, the Tlatelolco massacre in Mexico, and the protests of the Black Power movement in the United States after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. By challenging government policies and by questioning traditional or bourgeois lifestyles in East and West as well as South and North, the ‘68 generation was able to induce what Immanuel Wallerstein called a “revolution in the world-system.” [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Studies; 68 Generation]
