N2  - Herbert Marcuse is almost invariably cited in the numerous books and articles dealing with May 1968. Without question, the philosophical and political positions which he defended resonate with the struggles and aspirations of a period both rebellious and utopian, in which anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, third-world, and anti-capitalist struggles were mingled with new forms of social mobilization, directed against whatever could hamper and compromise the possibility of living fully in the present. Marcuse notably addressed the question of alienation, affirming that, here and now, another life is possible.
