Resumo
Nineteen eighty-nine was for me, like for so many other Europeans and in particular Central Europeans, a year of miracles. In mid-November of that year I was traveling through the United States and giving papers on working class culture, anthropology, and history. Whenever I was asked where I came from I always answered 'from the continent of the revolutions.' What a joy. But I was sad that I had traveled west rather than east.
