( = rotation) revolution━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━The term la Révolution tranquille refers to the important social, political and cultural transition that took place in Quebec from the early 1960s. As well as rapid economic expansion and a reorganization of political institutions, there was a growing sense of pride among Québécois in their specific identity as French-speaking citizens. The Révolution tranquille is thus seen as a strong affirmation of Quebec's identity as a French-speaking province. → QUÉBEC* * *ʀevɔlysjɔ̃1) ( changement radical) revolution2) ( effervescence) turmoil3) ( de planète) revolution4) Mathématique rotation* * *ʀevɔlysjɔ̃ nf* * *révolution nf1 Pol revolution; provoquer une révolution to bring about a revolution; révolution scientifique/industrielle scientific/industrial revolution; ce livre est une révolution this is a revolutionary book; faire révolution dans to revolutionize; la Révolution (française or de 1789) the French Revolution;2 ( effervescence) turmoil; être en révolution to be in turmoil;4 ( forces) la révolution the revolutionary forces.révolution culturelle Cultural Revolution; révolution de juillet French revolution of July 1830; révolution nationale France's social revolution directed by Maréchal Pétain beginning in 1940; la révolution d'octobre the Russian Revolution ou the October Revolution; révolution de palais palace revolution.[revɔlysjɔ̃] nom fémininune révolution de palais a palace coup ou revolution2.

Precipitated by the social and financial abuses of the Ancien Régime, it was a turbulent period lasting from the Fall of the Bastille in 1789 until the end of the century. It was marked by the Declaration of Human Rights, the execution of Louis XVI, the Reign of Terror (1793-94) and war against the other European powers. -
2 Soixante-huit
, or 68the milestone year in French life and politics in the second half of the 20th century, when protests by students and workers almost brought down the French government, and led to sweeping changes in French society. The events of 68 were inspired and led by the young generation of the time, wishing to break out of the rather stuffy and conventional society of the time. They coincided with, though initially took a different form to, the 'youth revolution' in Britain and the USA; but while the UK's youth revolution was essentially social and cultural, and led by pop music and op art, France's revolution was political and cultural, a protest against the weight of the Gaullist state.The events of May 68 started on the drab concrete campus of the sprawling university of Nanterre in the northern suburbs of Paris, and quickly spread to other universities, notably the Sorbonne. Student leaders, among them DanielCohn- Bendit and Alain Krivine, called for radical change and the end of the 'bourgeois state'; students erected barricades in the Latin Quarter, and were soon joined by workers, notably from the huge Renault plant at Boulogne Billancourt in the Paris suburbs. Though political, the movement sidelined all existing political parties, including the Communists, considered by the new left-wing as being an 'obsolete' political force.Faced with turmoil on the streets and a partial collapse of French society, President de Gaulle fled to Germany on 29th May, before returning and promising new elections. But by the time the elections took place, theGrenelle agreements had been negotiated with the trade unions, the heat had died down, and many French people had become seriously alarmed by the turn of events. In the June elections, the Gaullist majority was returned to power with an increased majority.The events nevertheless marked the beginning of the end for de Gaulle. In 1969 he organised a referendum on decentralisation, promising to step down if the referendum failed. To a certain extent, de Gaulle's vision of decentralisation was not that wanted by the voters; but in addition, the referendum became seen as a plebiscite on the Gaullist system, rather than on decentralisation. The referendum proposal was rejected by 52.4% of voters, and de Gaulle stepped down.It is certain that a new France, less hide-bound, more emancipated and more free, emerged in the aftermath of 68. Whether this would have happened anyway, and whether the means justified the end, are questions about which there is still considerable debate in France to this day.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais.
