| Summary: | "The 43rd ITH conference put a focus on the movements of 1968 from a global perspective, emphasizing processes of transfer and exchange beyond borders. These social movements, which in some – in particular, non-European – countries took on the character of social revolts, were an international phenomenon. They were linked by networks, or followed the example of similar movements or sometimes were just contemporaneous, coincident, but united by a related spirit. Studies of five different cases – China, Latin America, Eastern Central Europe, Italy and Pakistan – reveal both shared characteristics and differences. Other contributions show how shared mental horizons, shaped by texts read all over the world, linked the movements of 1968 globally, as did practical networks such as those that developed from the movement to end the Vietnam war. What were the results, the long-term consequences and legacies of the worldwide revolts of the 1960s? This volume also tries to propose answers to these questions." |
