I dispute the relevance of the protests of 1968 to increased freedom.

Also EMFM, I do believe the title says "modern western liberalism", not "true classical liberalism"...
Well then, what is modern Western liberalism? According to most definitions of liberalism as a whole, 1968 was certainly not it. It was a variety of flavours of socialism. As such, you are taking a group of young socialists and saying their contribution to liberalism was more important than that of actual real liberals.
