商品簡介
More than thirty years after the university upheavals of the late 1960s, people still line up on both sides of the barricades to debate the significance of the student revolts. Despite the large number of works on the 1968 uprisings, our understanding of this crucial period remains limited because scholars have focused almost exclusively on the role of the students in these events. In this book, Stuart Hilwig brings a fresh perspective to the 1960s, venturing beyond the campus to chart the public response to Italy's student rebellion. An innovative blend of oral interviews, media analysis, and archival evidence, Italy and 1968 guides the reader through a world of professors, the police, clergy, concerned parents, town fathers, lawyers, auto workers and journalists. All these people interacted with and helped shape the actions and views of student rebels during the course of one of the most important movements of the twentieth century.
