The period that spans from May 1968 indistinctly into the 1970s has been subject to an even larger volume of varying labeling.

The period saw Godard align himself with a specific revolution and employ a consistent revolutionary rhetoric.

Famous quotes containing the word period:

    After all, the practical reason why, when the power is once in the hands of the people, a majority are permitted, and for a long period continue, to rule is not because they are most likely to be in the right, nor because this seems fairest to the minority, but because they are physically the strongest. But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
