HIST H455 Youth, Revolt & Student Power in World H
This course will examine the concept of youth revolt and student power in history, with an emphasis on the twentieth century. We will consider the idea of "youth" and "student" as political identity factors and how these are understood, expressed and enacted by individuals across time and place. By examining student and youth oriented social movements and oppositional subcultures, we will ask key questions about the role of youth identity in contentious politics and social change.
