LIP affair

The Lip Affair refers to the events surrounding a strike at the Lip watch factory in Besançon, France, during the 1970s. Beginning in 1973, the conflict lasted until mid-1976, mobilizing tens of thousands of people across France and Europe. The movement's highlight was the Lip March on 29, which brought over 100,000 demonstrators to a "dead city" Besançon.
