Uses of Oral History in Museums
This paper explores the potential for the deployment of oral history in the museum space to challenge hegemonic narratives on the past and enhance multivocality. Following an overview of the general merits of oral history and debates about its use in museums, we set out the arguments in favour of combining such an approach with the notion of agonistic memory. We then move to a comparative analysis between the Schindler's Factory exhibition in Kra…
Northern Ireland’s 1968 at 50
2018 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the seminal events of Northern Ireland’s 1968: a milestone offering up an opportunity to reassess a pivotal moment in the province’s recent past. This article will argue that the civil rights period has fitted into a common model of the past being used to perpetuate the divisions at the heart of Northern Irish society. It will go on to demonstrate how an innovative methodological and theoretical approach, b…
From mai–juin ’68 to Nuit Debout
In the great drama that was mai–juin 1968, the police were unquestionably a central actor. In particular, they played a pivotal role in transforming what started out as a relatively minor, student-based rebellion into a nationwide movement that brought the Gaullist regime to the brink of collapse. The 2016 Nuit Debout protest movement drew strong comparisons to the 1968 events, with many wondering whether France stood to experience a repeat of th…
Beneath the Troubles, the Cobblestones
Northern Ireland’s 1968 in a Post-troubles Context
1968 has always been regarded as a moment of great change across the globe. In recent years, new studies of nations having experienced a 68-style upheaval have proliferated, leading to this period being held up as one of transnational revolt. A notable absence from this ever-growing list has been Northern Ireland. Despite having experienced a period of revolt that at the very least should have seen what happened in the streets of Belfast and Derr…

The publication of this special issue is timed to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome in March 1957 by France and its five fellow founder members of the European Economic Community (EEC) (... continues)
Presidential elections and Europe
As well as marking 60 years since the signature of the Treaty of Rome, 2017 will see the 10th presidential election of France’s Fifth Republic. The overlap between the question of Europe and the election to France’s highest office provides the framework for this article to explore the development of the European debate in France. Prior to 2012, and despite the increasing and undeniable salience of it for French domestic concerns, the question of …

Breaking the Walls of Privacy
This article approaches the events of 1968 not—as traditionally done—by focusing on the agents of activism but rather on the spaces of their activism. Drawing from examples in Poland, Ireland and the Soviet Union, it argues that the street and square as sites of protest assumed more and more significance in the run-up to and during the events of 1968, changing both the nature of protests and the symbolic and physical nature of the spaces concerne…
Understanding 1968 – The Case of Brest
This article examines the dominance of Paris in how May '68 has been portrayed over the years. It will be argued, through a case-study of the revolt in the Breton city of Brest, that the Paris-centred approach is one that belies the true nationwide aspect of May/June 1968. As one of a range of characteristics, the concentration on the Latin Quarter has helped mould what Kristin Ross has described as the 'official history' of 1968. An examination …
