Continuity. Continuity / Natasha Kapoor -- Origins, legacy and continuity / Dimitrios Roussopoulos.As the contributors to this anthology revisit the sixties to identify its ongoing impact on North American politics and culture, it becomes evident how this legacy has blended with, and influenced today's world-wide social movements, in particular, the anti-globalization movement, and the 'Right to the City' movement: the successes and failures of civil society organizations as they struggle for a voice at all levels of decision-making are examined, as are the new movements of the urban disenfranchised--the homeless, the alienation of youth, the elderly poor. Apart from evoking memories of past peace and freedom struggles from those who worked on the social movements of the 1960s, this work also includes a number of essays from a rising generation of intellectuals and activists, too young to have experienced the 1960s firsthand, whose perspective enables them to offer fresh insights and analyses.Right and left (Political science)History20th centuryRight and left (Political science)HistoryRoussopoulos Dimitrios I1069423Roussopoulos Dimitrios I1069423BOOK9910164046003321The New Left2555507UNINA
