Description

Two-day international conference at Georgetown University used the fiftieth anniversary of “1968” - an international symbolic shorthand that signifies a broader moment of political and cultural upheaval - to revisit its global and local meanings. By bringing together younger and established scholars who are engaged in cutting edge historical research on political and cultural activism around 1968, the conference probed the utility of global and local approaches to one of the most eventful and consequential moments in twentieth century history.
