We are pleased to share “Legacies of '68: Histories, Geographies, Epistemologies” the newest issue of Cultural Politics (15:3), edited by Morgan Adamson and Sarah Hamblin.

Contributors to this special issue discuss the historical significance and cultural legacies of 1968 from the vantage point of contemporary politics. Mapping out the transnational connections between the various 1968 movements, the authors trace the legacies of these ideas to see how the year continues to shape political, cultural, and social discourse today.

Topics covered include the Third World student strike at San Francisco State College, the decade-long revolution known as May ’68 and its connection to anticolonial struggle and the emergence of “the world university system,” and radical feminist author Shulamith Firestone’s Dialectic of Sex.

Contributors to this issue are Morgan Adamson, Michael E. Gardiner, Sarah Hamblin, Isaac Kamola, Madeline Lane-McKinley, Eli Meyerhoff, Quinn Slobodian, Alberto Toscano, and Evan Calder Williams.
