...gesture of protest, and this makes it unlikely that his political reasons count for much," he argues. Beverly Hills Psychiatrist Ralph Greenson agrees. "Skyjacking is a typical mechanism of people who resort to irrational violence," he says.

The authors argue that France's workers, although in actual control of many plants, "failed to take the next logical step: to run the economy by themselves as free and equal partners." The reason: they were unprepared for the responsibility, "overwhelmed by the unexpected vistas that had suddenly opened up before them." Beyond that, the Cohn-Bendits blame the established left: the Communist Party, which they scornfully dismiss as "a mere appendage of the Soviet bureaucracy," and the left-wing Confédération Générale du Travail.
