Second half of the 1960s characterized by an extraordinary surge of the youth and student movement in western society, that entailed outrage& and condemnation from one point of view, and approval and expectation for the future - from another one. These movements acquired the greatest rise in France, USA, Italy and Germany. The notable feature of the political situation in Germany during t&he 1960s was the revitalization of the youth movements under the conditions of general aggravation of social confl icts. Among young people the leading forces were students, who stood up to defend of democratic right of German population. The sharp i&ncrease in political activity of students, who have questioned the traditional western values and tried to fi nd new public theories and political slogans, marked the beginning of change in the ideological and political climate in the country. It was& also a matter of concern for the ruling circles of Germany. Thus, the German experience should be considered as a time challenge, not a treat. The students protest movement of the 1960s was a remarkable event in German. Its slogans and demands were &heard by society and its magnitude had seen the whole world. This movement changed the society, its principles, views and made infl uence for the future German development. The movement of the 1960s infl uenced the German society unambiguously and un&questioningly.

Among them were reforms in education system, changesin social relationships, activation of discussion about the past and the future of Germany. So it becamea kind of "cultural revolution" and helped break stereotypes and& dogmas, promoted the liberalization of society and revealing new value orientations, fi rst of all among young generation.
