the year was 1968

"If a revolutionary movement is to succeed," wrote Daniel Cohn-Bendit, the most famous of the Paris rebels, "no form of organisation whatever must be allowed to dam its spontaneous flow." That was the lesson of communism's failure: it wasn't bad leadership that suborned democracy, but "the very existence of leadership".

Anyone with a taste of la revolucion? :)
