Barr-Melej身后举着一面儿童旗

在他最近发表的文章《newbb电子平台》中? 《newbb电子》. 帕特里克Barr-Melej, 历史教授,国际研究中心临时执行主任, explores 1968 in Chile as part of an edited volume of essays titled Global 1968: Cultural Revolutions in Europe and Latin America (University of Notre Dame Press, 2021). 集合, 编辑詹姆斯·麦克亚当斯(圣母大学)和安东尼·蒙塔(圣十字学院), 特色的贡献杰出的历史学家, 电影制作人, 音乐, 文学学者, 和小说家.

从墨西哥城到巴黎,甚至更远, 1968年发生了大规模的抗议活动, 政治暴力, 新值的断言, 艺术表达的爆发共同挑战了主导结构, 意识形态, 以及冷战时期的敏感性.

对于Barr-Melej, 的政治, 社会, 拉丁美洲“漫长的60年代”(1959-73)智利的文化历史, bookended by the Cuban Revolution and the military coup that ended Marxist president Salvador Allende’s “Chilean road to 社会ism,” provides an insightful point of access into the zeitgeist—or spirit— of ’68 and the ’68 phenomenon generally. W在这里as certain actors and events in Chile reflected the reach of and contributed to the zeitgeist of ’68, Barr-Melej maintains that many of the essential factors of what transformed 1968 into ’68 transnationally were played out differently t在这里, 规模更小吗, 或者只是没有展开.

为了说明, Barr-Melej looks at a university reform movement in 1967–68 that realized its immediate goals under a centrist government—circumstances that were quite alien to student protesters in 墨西哥城 or Paris. 尽管1968年圣地亚哥街头发生了几起骚乱和冲突, 通常是激进的年轻人与警察对抗, 这样的喷发是小而短暂的, 难道没有严重妨碍首都或其他地方的生活节奏吗, and largely were outcroppings of ongoing debates and legislative struggles between political parties and blocs, 他认为.

Barr-Melej notes that a vital factor shaping Chile’s ’68 experience was the absence of a profound and perilous (or promising, (取决于某人的位置)僵局感, 这是一个复杂的问题, 促成了1968年巴黎的爆炸性事件, 墨西哥城, 以及其他情况. 智利的情况就是如此,尽管工人们表达了深深的沮丧, 各种学生和青年团体, 还有其他选区, 尤其是对更激进(和激进化)的左派, 关于国家政治文化和社会经济结构的系统要素.

“With democratic and pluralistic qualities framing an electoral environment in which leftist political parties had participated earnestly for many decades, 智利1973年前的政治文化提供了空间, 尽管竞争激烈, 激进政治的兴起和发展, 包括年轻人,Barr-Melej解释道.

自20世纪20年代以来, 政治民主化只在少数情况下被打断, 比如从40年代末到50年代末对共产党的取缔. 一般来说, 智利自20世纪30年代以来的政治文化基本上提供了一种机制——一个压力阀, 可以说,它将战后的革命能量引入了主流政治, 直到20世纪70年代早期都是如此. 例如,1968年前夕的法国和墨西哥就没有出现这种情况.”

这篇文章部分与Barr-Melej最近的一本书有关, 迷幻的智利:青春, 反主流文化, 《newbb电子平台》(北卡罗来纳大学出版社), 2017), 在智利引起了相当大的关注和赞誉. In 2017, 《newbb电子》被发行量很大的圣地亚哥报纸La Tercera评为“最值得关注的书”.

Barr-Melej received his PhD in History from the University of California at Berkeley and teaches courses on Latin American history, 世界历史, 和史学. He is the author of two books and numerous articles and essays on Chilean history and has given invited talks at institutions around the world. Barr-Melej also evaluates grant proposals for the government of Chile and serves on the editorial committees of Chilean academic journals.
