Decolonizing 1968
Este artículo amplía las observaciones que hice en septiembre de 2023 en las IX Jornadas de Estudio y Reflexión sobre Movimientos Estudiantiles, y resume los puntos principales de mi reciente investigación plasmada en Decolonizing 1968: Transnational Student Activism in Tunis, Paris, and Dakar. Se sostiene que las protestas de 1968 deben ser entendidas como un momento postcolonial y explico mi comprensión de lo que significa “descolonizar” en 196…

In the aftermath of the French Revolution, Georg W. F. Hegel labeled it a “world-historical” event. Just a few decades later, Karl Marx was equally fascinated by this Revolution, contributing to the notion that it served as a global turning point that would bend European society toward a post-feudal, modern world.

Discussion of The Third World in the Global 1960s by Samantha Christiansen and Zachary A. Scarlett
From the Archives to the Streets
In the spring of 1968, activists across the globe took to the streets and clashed with authorities to protest neo-imperialism, oppressive regimes, and the postcolonial order of things. While there is no shortage of archival material documenting this type of activism during France's mai 68, this is often not the case for similar activism in places like Tunisia and Senegal. This article discusses the importance of personal archives and oral histori…
March 1968
This article examines the activism of Tunisian university students in the late 1960s. During the series of events surrounding the student protests of March 1968 at the University of Tunis, political activists across Tunisia and France forged communication networks or drew upon existing ones in order to further their political claims. The objectives of this article are to investigate the historical roots of these transnational networks in the colo…
