Where 1968 fits
Why 1968 is special
Protest movements, assassinations and strikes ran through the United States, France, Czechoslovakia, Mexico and elsewhere within months of each other. As with 1848 the events had different local causes, and treating them as one movement is a retrospective framing rather than something the participants shared.

History
Protests, strikes and assassinations ran through the United States, France, Czechoslovakia, Mexico and elsewhere within months of one another in 1968. As with 1848, local causes differed substantially, and reading them as a single movement is a retrospective framing the participants would not have recognised.
