Opis

A social, political and cultural history of left-wing social movements in 1960s Europe, Sixties Europe examines the border-crossing uprisings of the 1960s on both sides of the Iron Curtain, placing them in the broader context formed by Third World liberation struggles and Cold War geopolitics.

Recenzje

'Brown provides an important analysis of the conceptual underpinnings of the revolutionary movements of the 1960s in Europe. This is very much a book of ideas, which rightly argues that the many movements on the left which blossomed in countries across the continent placed a search for meaning at the heart of their efforts.' Nick Thomas, University of Nottingham
