Burleigh Hendrickson details protesters' versions of events to counterbalance more visible narratives that emerged from state-controlled media centers and ultimately describes how the very education systems put in place to serve the French state during the colonial period ended up functioning as the crucible of postcolonial revolt. Hendrickson not only unearths complex connections among activists and their transnational networks across Tunis, Paris, and Dakar but also weaves together their overlapping stories and participation in France's May '68. Using global protest to demonstrate the enduring links between France and its former colonies, Decolonizing 1968 traces the historical relationships between colonialism and 1968 activism, examining transnational networks that emerged and new human and immigrants' rights initiatives that directly followed. As a result, Hendrickson reveals that 1968 is not merely a flashpoint in the history of left-wing protest but a key turning point in the history of decolonization. 517 $aTransnational Student Activism in Tunis, Paris, and Dakar 606 $aStudents$xPolitical activity 606 $aStudent movements 607 $aFrance 607 $aSenegal 607 $aTunisia 610 $aAfrican history 615 0$aStudents$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aStudent movements. 676 $a371.8109611 700 $aHendrickson$b Burleigh J$g(Burleigh Joe),$01279621 712 02$aPenn State University / TOME$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996517758703316 996 $aDecolonizing 1968$93015731 997 $aUNISA LEADER 02936nam 2200613 a 450 001 9910789087303321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-282-08908-0 010 $a9786612089084 010 $a90-04-21343-0 035 $a(CKB)3390000000015157 035 $a(EBL)771976 035 $a(OCoLC)753480436 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000308338 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11235235 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000308338 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10258022 035 $a(PQKB)11630024 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC771976 035 $a(nllekb)BRILL9789004213432 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL771976 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10497405 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL208908 035 $a(PPN)174396406 035 $a(EXLCZ)993390000000015157 100 $a20111028d2007 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aCentennial perspectives$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by Rotem Kowner 210 $aFolkestone, Kent, U.K. $cGlobal Oriental$d2007 215 $a1 online resource (544 p.) 225 0 $aRethinking the Russo-Japanese War, 1904-05 ;$vv. 1 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-905246-03-X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $apt. 1.

Reactions and postwar repercussions. 330 $aDespite the growing number of publications on the Russo-Japanese War, an abundance of questions and issues related to this topic remain unsolved, or call for a reexamination. This 30-chapter volume, the first in the two-volume project Rethinking the Russo-Japanese War, provides a comprehensive reexamination of the origins of the conflict, the various dimensions of the nineteen-month conflagration, the legacy of the war, and its place in the history of the twentieth century. Such an enterprise is not only timely but unique. It has benefited from a multinational team of thirty-two scholars from twelve nations representing a broad disciplinary background. The majority of them focus on topics never researched before and without exception provide a novel and critical view of the war. This reexamination is, of course, facilitated by a century-long perspective as well as an impressive assortment of primary and secondary sources, many of them unexplored and, in a number of cases, unavailable earlier. 606 $aRusso-Japanese War, 1904-1905$xHistory 607 $aJapan$xHistory$yMeiji period, 1868-1912 607 $aJapan$xForeign relations$y20th century 615 0$aRusso-Japanese War, 1904-1905$xHistory. 676 $a355.331094709041 676 $a952.031 701 $aKowner$b Rotem$01473618 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789087303321 996 $aCentennial perspectives$93686858 997 $aUNINA
