Recent studies on the impact of 1968 have focussed on transnational perspectives. The scope and nature of the rebellions go far beyond the stereotypical frameworks that have dominated traditional representations. As the diversity of this "year" of revolt gains greater currency, the case of 1968 has emerged as a critical lens through which to examine the question of transnational collective memories. This book addresses the dominance of the French mai 68 in the way the events are remembered at a European level. Through a comparison with the French events, this study explores how the memory of Northern Ireland's 1968 has been marginalised and argues a case for its inclusion on the list of countries that make up this Europe-wide period of revolt.

For over forty years now, 1968 in France has been the focus of much attention. While mai 68 is certainly seen as a watershed in the development of French society, a common narrative that portrays it in an increasingly reductive light has become prevalent. As a result, the French collective memory of 1968 has been shaped and cultivated in such a way that undermines true magnitude of the 'events'. Why this is the case, who benefits from the dominance of this consensus and to what extent the history of 1968 is retrievable are the questions that underpin Memories of mai 68: France's Convenient Con

Depuis le milieu des années 1980, le dessinateur britannique Chris Reynolds bâtit un monde bien à lui. À première vue, le monde de Mauretania ressemble au nôtre. On peut y contempler la nature ; y enchaîner les petits boulots ; retourner sur les lieux de son enfance... Mais plus on le regarde de près, plus il paraît étrange. On tombe au coin de la rue sur une arche romaine qui semble avoir été construite la veille... puis sur les vestiges d'une civilisation extraterrestre... puis l'on comprend que ladite civilisation a pris le contrôle de la Terre. Dans l'un des récits constituant cette anthologie, Monitor II, personnage énigmatique portant toujours un casque, est investi d'une lourde mission : veiller à l'équilibre du monde. Dans ce but, il sera amené à accomplir diverses tâches, comme fermer des entreprises qu'il juge néfastes ou offrir des cerfs-volants à des enfants. Dans un autre récit, un détective enquête sur des immeubles qui disparaissent du jour au lendemain. Car chez Chris Reynolds, les lieux sont animés de leur propre vie. On voit poindre des ingrédients issus du récit de genre (on trouve par exemple des éléments de science-fiction, des enquêtes policières...) et un discret humour tout britannique, mais de la même façon que le monde dépeint par Chris Reynolds semble remodelé, l'auteur semble prendre un malin plaisir à déjouer les attentes des lecteurs pour produire quelque chose d'indicible et mystérieux.

This volume contends that young individuals across Europe relate to their country’s history in complex and often ambivalent ways. It pays attention to how both formal education and broader culture communicate ideas about the past, and how young people respond to these ideas. The studies collected in this volume show that such ideas about the past are central to the formation of the group identities of nations, social movements, or religious groups. Young people express received historical narratives in new, potentially subversive, ways. As young people tend to be more mobile and ready to interrogate their own roots than later generations, they selectively privilege certain aspects of their identities and their identification with their family or nation while neglecting others. This collection aims to correct the popular misperception that young people are indifferent towards history and prove instead that historical narratives are constitutive to their individual identities and their sense of belonging to something broader than themselves.
