  • Student Communes, Political Counterculture, and the Columbia University Protest of 1968
    THE POLITICS OF SPACE: STUDENT COMMUNES, POLITICAL COUNTERCULTURE, AND THE COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PROTEST OF 1968 Blake Slonecker A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: Peter Filene Reader: Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Reader: Jerma Jackson © 2006 Blake Slonecker ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT BLAKE SLONECKER: The Politics of Space: Student Communes, Political Counterculture, and the Columbia University Protest of 1968 (Under the direction of Peter Filene) This thesis examines the Columbia University protest of April 1968 through the lens of space. It concludes that the student communes established in occupied campus buildings were free spaces that facilitated the protestors’ reconciliation of political and social difference, and introduced Columbia students to the practical possibilities of democratic participation and student autonomy. This thesis begins by analyzing the roots of the disparate organizations and issues involved in the protest, including SDS, SAS, and the Columbia School of Architecture. Next it argues that the practice of participatory democracy and maintenance of student autonomy within the political counterculture of the communes awakened new political sensibilities among Columbia students. Finally, this thesis illustrates the simultaneous growth and factionalization of the protest community following the police raid on the communes and argues that these developments support the overall claim that the free space of the communes was of fundamental importance to the protest. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Peter Filene planted the seed of an idea that eventually turned into this thesis during the sort of meeting that has come to define his role as my advisor—I came to him with vast and vague ideas that he helped sharpen into a manageable project.

In this course, we will explore this exciting and self-consciously political and transformative field. After a conceptual introduction to feminist and anti-hierarchical theory, we will look in some depth at seven different types of feminist economic transformation: questioning/envisioning, equal rights and opportunity, valuing the devalued, integrative, discernment, combining, and globalizing/localizing. Our study will include feminist economic analyses of areas understudied or ignored by traditional economists -- occupational segregation by sex, the economics of the household, and caring labor – as well as feminist economic policy prescriptions.

FALUDI FIGHTS BACK: A REVIEW OF BACKLASH: THE UNDECLARED WAR AGAINST AMERICAN WOMEN MERLE H. WEINER* Perhaps it is too much to say that Susan Faludi's Backlash: The Un- declared War Against American Women 1 is to the 1990s what Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique2 was to the 1960s. Faludi's book probably will not revolutionize women to embark on a feminist journey; yet it does cap- ture, as Friedan did, an unspoken truth about the interrelationship of society and its women. It is this naming the unnamed, as Friedan origi- 3 nally did, that makes Faludi's book well worth reading. The simplicity of Faludi's premise, that a backlash against women's rights and feminism is occurring, is both one of the book's strengths and one of its weaknesses. While Faludi amply demonstrates the existence of a "backlash," she never tells the reader how to reverse it.
