Funded Activity Summary

A New History of 1968: Feminism and Student Revolt in the Colonels' Greece (1967-1974). The student revolts of 68 are usually associated with Paris, Berkeley, Turin, Chicago, Leeds. But student uprisings also occurred in the universities of Australia, when students mobilised most notably against the Vietnam War. But there is another dimension which makes this project an important one for Australia - namely, that many Greek citizens migrated to Australia both after the Civil War (1946-1949) and after the installation of the military junta in 1967. This project will be historicising an aspect of the Australian migration experience which has received little acknowledgement.
