Marking the centenary of Simone de Beauvoir's birth and the 40th anniversary of Paris's legendary political carnival in 1968, this book explores the inheritance of May 1968 and asks what has become of the ideal and the myth of resistance. The period of German occupation of France during World War II has given the idea of resistance a heroic glamour for more than 60 years, but the recital of resistance stories has always been an attempt to recover honor. Taking the riots in France of 1968 as a starting point to look at resistance movements in contemporary history, such as the feminist movement and acts of resistance pertinent to Australia, this book tells these stories in new contexts and submits history to the uses of the present and the future.
