Summary

Student Protest takes a new look at the causes, course and consequences of some of the most familiar -- and romanticized -- Sixties protests in the US, France, Germany, Mexico and Great Britain as well as more recent, and hazardous, examples of student activism, particularly in China, Korea and Iran. Consistent themes emerge, revealing a distinct culture of student protest. In Berkeley, Berlin, Tehran and Tian'anmen Square, students have acted according to well established patterns of protest, employing the same tactics and ultimately, suffering the same disappointments.
