'May '68 was not only a pivotal year in Paris, Berkeley, and the Western World in general, but also a key moment for a new anticolonial and anticapitalist politics across the Third World. Japan's unusual position — deemed neither Western nor the Third World — provoked a complex and intense round of mass mobilizations and radical political thought through the 1960s and early '70s. In The Red Years, major thinkers of the Left in Japan alongside scholars of the 1968 movements re-examine the historical background, cultural productions, and major organizational problems of this tumultuous moment in Japanese history.' - from the back cover
