Mass market paperback. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. vii, [3], 177, [5], pages. Notes. Index. A brilliant analysis of America's delated stress reaction to Vietnam. Walter Capps, former director of the Robert Hutchins Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions, is professor of religious studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He has written and edited eight books. he Vietnam War (1 November 1955 30 April 1975) was an armed conflict in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia fought between North Vietnam (Democratic Republic of Vietnam) and South Vietnam (Republic of Vietnam) and their allies. North Vietnam was supported by the Soviet Union and China, while South Vietnam was supported by the United States and other anti-communist nations. The conflict was the second of the Indochina wars and a proxy war of the Cold War between the Soviet Union and US. The Vietnam War was one of the postcolonial wars of national liberation, a theater in the Cold War, and a civil war, with civil warfare a defining feature from the outset. Direct US military involvement escalated from 1965 until its withdrawal in 1973. The fighting spilled into the Laotian and Cambodian Civil Wars, which ended with all three countries becoming communist in 1975. Artikel-Nr. 89991

Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. vii, [3], 242, [4], pages. Foreword by Marshall Singer. Articles describe the beginnings, development, and consequences of the cultural revolution of the 60s and 70s--from the Haight-Ashbury to Woodstock and Altamont; from drugs to the new music, film and prose; from hippies and militant homosexuals to military deserters and women liberationists. Ramparts was a glossy illustrated American political and literary magazine, published from 1962 to 1975 and closely associated with the New Left political movement. Unlike most of the radical magazines of the day, Ramparts was expensively produced and graphically sophisticated. The counterculture of the 1960s was an anti-establishment cultural phenomenon and political movement that developed in the Western world during the mid-20th century. It began in the early 1960s, and continued through the early 1970s. It is often synonymous with cultural liberalism and with the various social changes of the decade. The effects of the movement have been ongoing to the present day. The aggregate movement gained momentum as the civil rights movement in the United States had made significant progress, such as the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and with the intensification of the Vietnam War that same year, it became revolutionary to some. As the movement progressed, widespread social tensions also developed concerning other issues, and tended to flow along generational lines regarding respect for the individual, human sexuality, women's rights, traditional modes of authority, rights of people of color, end of racial segregation, experimentation with psychoactive drugs, and differing interpretations of the American Dream. Many key movements related to these issues were born or advanced within the counterculture of the 1960s. Artikel-Nr. 89993
