By 1968, the president Charles De Gaulle had been in power for 11 years already. People were starting to be fed up with him and his popularity decreased.
The crisis began due to the coming of foreign ideologies from Communist countries and bad situations in the universities. High numbers, overcrowding, the fear of not finding a suitable job later. The students wanted more involvment in the running of universities and wanted the mixing of male and female students in the Cité Universitaire.
Thus, riots began in May 68 in Nanterres first and then in La Sorbonne. 6 weeks on demonstrations followed by a general wildcat strike that touched 2/3 of the sectors in France, and 11 Million of people.
