Based on new, rare sources which have not been used elsewhere, it includes interviews from social science-generated studies of the 1960s and 1970s Provides new evidence which lets us tap into the private lives and opinions of ordinary people during the 1960s in completely new ways Challenges several myths and forms part of an ongoing, wider reassessment of '1968' in European and global history, one where gender conflict is given more prominence alongside generational conflict Decentres the history of the West Germany 1968 away from Frankfurt and Berlin, and from the universities
