1968: Radical Protest and Its Enemies

by Richard Vinen Author

In 1968 it seemed like everyone from anti-war and feminist groups, gay rights activists, and over ten million everyday workers in France were constantly in the streets in protest. This remarkable year of social unrest shaped much of the subsequent social and political history of the 20th Century. This book is a insightful and detailed attempt to show how these worldwide events, ranging from uprisings against Soviet oppression in Eastern Europe to anti-war marches in the United States, marked a change in society and shaped events still unfolding today.
