Mai-68.fr
1968-2008 : retour aux sources
Mai 68 est encore, comme le prouvent certains récents discours tenus au plus haut niveau de l’Etat, un enjeu politique d’importance. Mais c’est aussi, bien entendu un enjeu historiographique et documentaire. C’est en fonction de cela que le CODHOS s’est donné pour tâche de recenser les différentes manifestations occasionnées par le 40ème anniversaire. Il s’agit de faire, dans un souci documentaire et analytique, une radiographie des formes que prendra cet anniversaire.
