Rendezvous With a Revolution
This essay traces the presence of British left-wing radicals in Portugal during the Carnation Revolution of 1974–5, a phase of significant sociopolitical change that fired the imagination of layers of activists across Europe.

The Mao-libertarian group Vive la Révolution was…
