Across the globe, no era in the 20th century has been as celebrated,
contested, and
scrutinized as the 1960s. And as we are frequently reminded - in a parade
of books,
articles, films, television programs and exhibitions - the Sixties
continue to
illuminate our present era. Now, forty years after the many of the main
events of
1960s, Routledge is delighted to announce the publication of a new,
peer-reviewed
journal devoted to grappling with the era's complicated legacy.
Featuring cross-disciplinary and cutting-edge scholarship from academics
and public
intellectuals, The Sixties is the only academic journal devoted to this
extraordinary era. In addition to research essays and book reviews, The
Sixties
publishes exhibition reviews, conversations, interviews and graphics.
The inaugural issue includes:
. an editorial statement
. research essays on the Black Panthers in Israel; the Chicano land grant
movement;
and Barnett Newman, abstract art and 1968.
. reviews of "Across the Universe" and the Whitney Museum exhibit on
psychedelia
. a review essay of writings on Mexico in the Sixties
. reviews of books on SNCC, May 68 in France, the Esalen Institute, SDS,
the Welfare
Rights movement, Henry Kissinger, Latin American literature and the
Sixties, and
more
. an interview with Daniel Berrigan and Frida Berrigan
The upcoming second issue will feature:
. research essays on Nixon's Family Assistance Plan; the historical
origins of the
idea of the "liberal media"; Red Cross "Donut Dollies" in Vietnam; and the
National
Teacher's Corps.
. a Sixties memoir by Estelle Freedman
. a review essay on the German 1960s by Martin Klimke
. a report on 1968 conferences in the UK and Brazil
. reviews of museum exhibitions on Cuban art and Mexico 1968
. reviews of books on women journalists in Vietnam; Nixonland; Love
Canal; the
Whole Earth Catalogue; the Sixties Unplugged;
. David Farber on the Chicago 10 film and Marian Mollin on the Camden 28
film
. a meditation on Albert Hofmann and LSD by Peter Coyote

The Sixties is Accepting Submissions for Upcoming Issues
The journal takes "the long sixties" (roughly 1954-1975) as its broad
focus, and
includes transnational and comparative analyses. To date, the journal has
received
disproportionate numbers of submissions from US scholars on US topics;
submissions
on non-US topics and from scholars in South America, Asia, Australia,
Europe and
Africa are, therefore, especially welcome. Editors seek submissions in the
following areas:
. Social movements and political protest
. Foreign and domestic policy
. Institutions and international relations
. Decolonization and North-South conflicts
. Women's history, gender history and the history of sexuality
. The experiences of subaltern and sub-national groups
. Intellectual history
. Print culture and electronic media
. Music, literature, film, theater, architecture and the visual arts
. Industry, business and advertising
. Science, technology and ecology
. Crime and punishment
Articles should be no more than 10,000 words (excluding notes) and free of
specialized jargon, with Chicago Humanities referencing and limited endnotes.
Please send submissions electronically to each of the following addresses:
Jeremy@???, Michael@???, and
John@???.
Ideas for book reviews should be sent to John McMillian
(John@???).
The Sixties is edited by Jeremy Varon (Drew University), Michael S.Foley
(City
University of New York) and John McMillian (Harvard University).
