Arnaud Dupin, « The SFIO of the 1960s : an impossible reform? », Theses.fr, ID : 10670/1.tzentp
The 1960s SFIO is a political party on the decline. Its inability to respond to the political challenges of the time, its unsuitability to the Fifth Republic and Guy Mollet's unalterable desire to maintain control over the organization prevent any profound evolution of the "vieille maison". The management by the SFIO of the preparatory negotiations for the creation of the NPS does not save the party in the opinion. The "vieille maison" disappears on May 4, 1969 at the Alfortville convention.
