Trivia
Following May 68, the Lip factory, which was based in Besançon, was self-managed starting in 1973, following the management's decision to liquidate it. Eventually, all the fired employees were reintegrated in March 1974, but the firm was liquidated again in the spring of 1976. This led to a new social conflict, qualified by Libération as "THE social conflict of the 1970s."
