    En 2018 pour les cinquantes ans de Mai 68 un sondage d’opinion indiquait que “70% des Francais jugeaient positivement les évènements de Mai 68”.Une opinion partagée par toutes les tendances politiques. Le sondage précisait que 88% des sympathisants de gauche mais aussi 77% de ceux du centre, 59% de ceux de droite et un surprenant 68% des sympathisants du Front National partageaient ce sentiment positif.







    Pourquoi un tel unanimisme ?. Chaque Francais semble s’être approprié les principaux slogans de Mai 68: “Il est interdit d’interdire”, “sous les pavés la plage”, “la volonté génerale contre la volonté du Général” … et quelques autres.
