Press/Media: Expert Comment

Description

"In the 1960s American capitalism seemed to be stronger than ever. In a few short years, however, the country was gripped by upheaval and protest. In the second edition of our ’68 Legacies series, award winning historian Brian Kelly argues that 'even regimes which appear stable and impregnable over long periods can find themselves tottering on the verge of collapse.'"
