'Brings to life social movements of the 1960s, a period of world-historical struggles. With discussions of more than fifty countries, Kastiaficas articulates an understanding that is neither bounded by national and continental divides nor focused on "Great Men and Women". Millions of people went into the streets, and their aspirations were remarkably similar. From the Prague revolt against Soviet Communism to the French May uprising, the Vietnam Tet offensive, African anticolonial insurgencies, the civil rights movement, and campus eruptions in Latin America, Yugoslavia, the United States, and beyond, this book portrays the movements of the 1960s as intuitively tied together.'
