ISBN: 9781461060321 / Angielski / Miękka / 594 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Imaginary Revolution: Parisian Students and Workers in 1968
ISBN: 9781571816757 / Angielski / Twarda / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The events of 1968 have been seen as a decisive turning point in the Western world. The author takes a critical look at "May 1968" and questions whether the events were in fact as "revolutionary" as French and foreign commentators have indicated. He concludes the student movement changed little that had not already been challenged and altered in the late fifties and early sixties. The workers' strikes led to fewer working hours and higher wages, but these reforms reflected the secular demands of the French labor movement. "May 1968" was remarkable not because of the actual transformations... The events of 1968 have been seen as a decisive turning point in the Western world.
