Sous les pavés ... The Troubles: Northern Ireland, France and the European Collective Memory of 1968

Chris Reynolds

Through a comparison with the paradigmatic French events of mai 68, this book explores how Northern Ireland's 1968 has been marginalised in the way the events are remembered at a European level. It argues a case for its inclusion on the list of countries that make up this Europe-wide period of revolt.

Praise for this book

An imaginative and original study that persuasively brings France and Northern Ireland in 1968 under the same comparative and transnational lens. (Professor Robert Gildea, University of Oxford)
