in general: so, that tension between activism and
-
personal growth in the 1960s as modes of social action,
-
the question about whether you can intervene in politics through
-
culture, is everywhere in the 1960s.
-
And you can see it come to a head in the 1990s with the culture wars,
-
when both liberals and conservatives begin to fight over,
-
especially over, the syllabi of courses like this.
