Overview

Un recorrido por el revolucionario 1968, el año en que se rebelaron los jóvenes de todo el mundo.

1968 se ha convertido en una especie de mito. Pero más allá de esa imagen idílica o confusa, fue un año lleno de acontecimientos políticos que provocaron la extendida sensación de que el mundo estaba al borde del colapso.

En Francia y en Estados Unidos, en Checoslovaquia, México, Japón, Italia, Alemania y España, 1968 fue el año en que los sistemas políticos fueron cuestionados, sobre todo, por unos jóvenes estudiantes convencidos de que el mundo que les legaban sus padres era aburrido, injusto y criminal. Sin un plan concreto, pero armados con nuevas ideologías de izquierdas, una retórica audaz y unas tácticas de protesta que imitaban a las de las guerrillas, rompieron los grandes consensos políticos y culturales que habían estado en pie desde el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

1968. El nacimiento de un mundo nuevo es una crónica de ese convulso año de grandes esperanzas y de sueños de un mundo mejor, pero también lleno de muertes violentas como las de Martin Luther King y Bobby Kennedy y disturbios como los de París, Tokio, Roma, Berlín y Madrid. Fue el año en que gobiernos como el de México se volvieron contra sus ciudadanos, las fuerzas del Pacto de Varsovia invadieron Checoslovaquia, se estableció el embrión de varios grupos terroristas como la Fracción del Ejército Rojo y las Brigadas Rojas, y ETA cometió su primer asesinato. Todo ello con el trasfondo ineludible de la guerra de Vietnam.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A trip through the revolutionary 1968, the year that youth around the world rebelled.

1968 has become a bit mythical. But beyond the idyllic or confused image, it was a year full of political achievements that provoked a prolonged sensation that the world was about to collapse. In France and the U.S., in Czechoslovakia, Mexico, Japan, Italy, Germany, and Spain, 1968 was the year in which the political systems were questioned, above all by young students convinced that the world that their parents had left to them was boring, unjust, and criminal.

This book is a chronicle of this tumultuous year of big hopes and dreams for a better world, but also of violent deaths and riots.
