History

French Student movement: after a temporary unity during the 1968 May revolt, the French student movement was split by many ideological conflicts in the 1970s; next to existing organizations many small radical left-wing organizations were established; only government plans for educational and university reforms temporarily reunited the students. Michel Renard: born in 1954 in Paris; history teacher; together with Julien Dray (on behalf of the Ligue Communiste Révolutionnaire) and Jean-Christophe Cambadélis (on behalf of the Alliance des Jeunes pour le Socialisme of the Parti Communiste Internationale) Michel Renard (on behalf of the Union Nationale des Étudiants de France-Renouveau) participated in leading the movement against the university reforms of the French government in 1976; also active in the election campaign of Pierre Juquin in 1988.
