  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 804 pages

Download or read book Out Now written by Fred Halstead and published by Pathfinder Press. This book was released on 1978 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the most detailed and accurate account of the movement against the war in Vietnam in the U.S. which has been written. A particular strength of the book is that it places the war and the movement against it within an international context. The author's attention to fact and detail (the book is well footnoted) recreates the mood and the political battles of the movement's conferences and debates. This book is a good starting place for a person who knew nothing about the anti-war movement or the 60s and early 70s. It is a particularly useful book for those looking to learn how a powerful political movement can be built.

Book The U S  Government and the Vietnam War  Executive and Legislative Roles and Relationships  Part IV

Download or read book The U S Government and the Vietnam War Executive and Legislative Roles and Relationships Part IV written by William Conrad Gibbons and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 986 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fourth volume of a five-part policy history of the U.S. government and the Vietnam War covers the core period of U.S. involvement, from July 1965, when the decision was made to send large-scale U.S. forces, to the beginning of 1968, just before the Tet offensive and the decision to seek a negotiated settlement. Using a wide variety of archival sources and interviews, the book examines in detail the decisions of the president, relations between the president and Congress, and the growth of public and congressional opposition to the war. Differences between U.S. military leaders on how the war should be fought are also included, as well as military planning and operations. Among many other important subjects, the financial effects of the war and of raising taxes are considered, as well as the impact of a tax increase on congressional and public support for the war. Another major interest is the effort by Congress to influence the conduct of the war and to place various controls on U.S. goals and operations. The emphasis throughout this richly textured narrative is on providing a better understanding of the choices facing the United States and the way in which U.S. policymakers tried to find an effective politico-military strategy, while also probing for a diplomatic settlement.

Book Protest in the Vietnam War Era

Download or read book Protest in the Vietnam War Era written by Alexander Sedlmaier and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the emergence and transformation of global protest movements during the Vietnam War era. It explores the relationship between protest focused on the war and other emancipatory and revolutionary struggles, moving beyond existing scholarship to examine the myriad interlinked protest issues and mobilisations around the globe during the Indochina Wars. Bringing together scholars working from a range of geographical, historiographical and methodological perspectives, the volume offers a new framework for understanding the history of wartime protest. The chapters are organised around the social movements from the three main geopolitical regions of the world during the 1960s and early 1970s: the core capitalist countries of the so-called first world, the socialist bloc and the Global South. The final section of the book then focuses on international organisations that explicitly sought to bridge and unite solidarity and protest around the world. In an era of persistent military conflict, the book provides timely contributions to the question of what war does to protest movements and what protest movements do to war.

Book The Lost Promise

  • Author : Ellen Schrecker
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2021-12-17
  • ISBN : 022620099X
  • Pages : 632 pages

Download or read book The Lost Promise written by Ellen Schrecker and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lost Promise is a magisterial examination of the turmoil that rocked American universities in the 1960s, with a unique focus on the complex roles played by professors as well as students. The 1950s through the early 1970s are widely seen as American academia’s golden age, when universities—well-funded and viewed as essential for national security, economic growth, and social mobility—embraced an egalitarian mission. Swelling in size, schools attracted new types of students and professors, including radicals who challenged their institutions’ calcified traditions. But that halcyon moment soon came to a painful and confusing end, with consequences that still afflict the halls of ivy. In The Lost Promise, Ellen Schrecker—our foremost historian of both the McCarthy era and the modern American university—delivers a far-reaching examination of how and why it happened. Schrecker illuminates how US universities’ explosive growth intersected with the turmoil of the 1960s, fomenting an unprecedented crisis where dissent over racial inequality and the Vietnam War erupted into direct action. Torn by internal power struggles and demonized by conservative voices, higher education never fully recovered, resulting in decades of underfunding and today’s woefully inequitable system. As Schrecker’s magisterial history makes blazingly clear, the complex blend of troubles that disrupted the university in that pivotal period haunts the ivory tower to this day.
