| Tiivistelmä: | In the vast literature on the events of 1968, the histories of the Western and Eastern halves of Europe are largely still written separately. Still, despite the very different political and socio-economic contexts, the protest movements on both sides of the Iron Curtain shared a number of characteristics. The 1968 events in Czechoslovakia and Western Europe were, reduced to the basics, investigations into the possibility of marrying social justice with liberty, and thus reflected a tension within European Marxism. This study provides an analysis specifically of the responses by the French left - the Communist Party, the student movements and the gauchistes - to the Prague Spring, characterised by misunderstandings and strategic appropriation. |
