Focusing on the lasting impact of the Sixties, this academic collection presents a nuanced view of the last quarter of the twentieth century in U.S. history. It challenges the notion of conservative dominance by exploring how the New Left's social movements—such as feminism, gay liberation, and black power—have significantly influenced contemporary American culture and politics. The essays collectively argue that the nation underwent profound democratization in the 1970s, revealing the enduring legacy of the era's social changes.
