This article focuses on Henri Lefebvre's direct and indirect influence on the student revolts of May 1968. His thought was an inspiration for the situationists and Daniel Cohn-Bendit, among others, who exploited and transformed his ideas., Coherent with the slogans spreading throughout the protests, Lefebvre's attitude brings them together in a critical discourse. His point of view allows to appreciate the political potential of the protests; it shows their aims which, going beyond the idea of a cultural revolution, focused on a holistic transformation of the world with the final goal of replacing the alienated, fragmented life with a fully lived one and allowing individuals to develop their potential. While various interpretations of students' protests express either a radically negative or positive reading, Lefebvre's perspective offers a complex explanation, which shows both the achievements of the students' movement and its deficiencies.
