"Our memory of the 1960s, unlike the events of the decade itself, has been provincial, focusing on a rather small number of activist groups and urban centers. And yet, from the most intimate forms of sexuality to the most public of geopolitical transformations, this was a period of global entanglement and exchange. This outstanding collection of essays show how a truly global account can enrich our understanding of the 1960s by placing themes of transnational circulation, international organization, and decolonization at the center of the story."James Chappel, Duke University, USA
