Purchase options and add-ons

What happens to youthful idealism as people leave their youth behind? ...Where do young revolutionaries go when the revolution doesn't happen? This book demonstrates that the students of the sixties generation outgrew their political ideals and channeled their energies into building lucrative careers and accumulating material goods.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"'The Big Chill' told only half the story of where Sixties activists ended up. Whalen and Flacks... honestly chronicle the other half."
Abbie Hoffman

"Whalen and Flacks are true Sixties sociologists—hip white knights who ride out to slay the ideal-crushing dragon of ‘The Big Chill.’ In all, a heart-on-the-sleeve, hopeful study that should appeal to social psychologists and Sixties sympathizers."
Kirkus Reviews



"In the first systematic study of the sequels to New Left radicalism, Whalen and Flacks bring alive the real choices of real activists. This is a lucid and enlightening book, full of stimulating ideas about continuities and fragilities in American radicalism."
Todd Gitlin, author of The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage
