    Of Ghosts and Survivors: The History and Memory of 1968 in Italy By Rosaria Carbotti A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair Professor Mia Fuller Professor Linda Williams Fall 2015 Abstract Of Ghosts and Survivors: The History and Memory of 1968 in Italy by Rosaria Carbotti Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair The year 1968 saw the rise of a manifold protest movement among Italian university students that evolved well into the late 1970s and spread to all segments of society. Today, the memory of this collective experience represents one of the most haunting episodes of the 20th century. Torn between celebrating national events and giving in to cultural amnesia, the Italian cultural discourse around ’68 appears deliberately opaque. In recent historiography, fiction, and film this momentous year appears to be condensed in a puzzle of contrasting snapshots that do not fit well together. On one hand, it is remembered as a watershed event that altered the course of the nation’s history and the lives of individuals in radical ways. On the other hand, many ’68 storytellers mourn the complete erasure of their experience from contemporary culture and criticize the moral wasteland that is associated with the current political arena when contrasted with the vanished hopes of the past.

  • Introduction: Negotiating Memories of Protest
    Notes Introduction: Negotiating Memories of Protest 1. ‘Contentious’ protests relate to collective actions performed by social groups that do not have ‘regular access to institutions, [ ...] act in the name of new or unaccepted claims, and [ ...] behave in ways that fundamentally challenge others or authorities’. Tarrow (2006, p. 3). 2. See Melucci (1996); Goodwin et al. (2001); Polletta and Jasper (2001); Jasper (2010). 3. See Mason (2011). 4. This is opposed to social memory, ‘an often not activated potentiality’ of which collective memory only represents ‘an activated practice’. Namer (1991, p. 93). 5. See Nowotny (1994); Adam (1995); Hoskins (2001); Brose cited in Hoskins (2004). 6. At present memory studies are, in fact, a disparate discipline which involves fields as diverse as history, sociology, literary and media studies and psychol- ogy, and its inter- or trans-disciplinary nature has produced a multitude of terminologies and definitions. Erll (2008). 7. ‘Communicative memory’ implies a living, autobiographical and ‘fluid’ memory based on everyday communication (Assmann, 2008, p. 111). 8. In this book I will predominantly apply the definition of ‘cultural’ memory in my analysis of the transference of memories of protest movements of the 1970s, whereas I reserve the concept of ‘collective’ memory to discussions about shared memories of groups more in generally (Erll, 2006, p. 5; Erll, 2008, p. 4). 9. The ‘linguistic turn’ was a development in Western philosophy which focused on the relation between philosophy and language. One of the strands within the movement acknowledges that language is not a trans- parent medium of thought, thus creating an awareness of the falseness of the claim that history can produce ‘true’ or ‘authentic’ accounts of the past.

Gamson, Boston College Professor Ron Eyerman, Yale University Professor Hanspeter Kriesi, EUI © Lorenzo Zamponi, 2015 No part of this thesis may be copied, reproduced or transmitted without prior permission of the author Abstract Cultural factors shape the symbolic environment in which contentious politics take place. Among these factors, collective memories are particularly relevant: they can help collective action by providing symbolic material from the past, but at the same time they can constrain people's ability to mobilise by imposing proscriptions and prescriptions. In my research I analyse the relationship between social movements and collective memories: how do social movement participate in the building of public memory? And how does public memory, and in particular the media representation of a contentious past, influence the social construction of identity in the contemporary movements? To answer these questions I focus on the student movements in Italy and Spain, analysing the content and format of media sources in order to draw a map of the different narrative representations of a contentious past, while I use qualitative interviews to investigate their influence on contemporary mobilisations.

Her PhD dissertation ‘The Relationship between Interpretation and Elaboration of Architectural Form: Investigating the Mutations of Architecture’s Scope’ (advisors: George Parmenidis (NTUA), Jean-Louis Cohen (NYU) and Panayotis Tournikiotis (NTUA), June 2018) is on the mutations of the modes of representation in contemporary architecture, focusing on the work of Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, the Team 10, Peter Eisenman, John Hejduk, Aldo Rossi, Oswald Mathias Ungers, Bernard Tschumi and Rem Koolhaas. She was a visiting scholar at Columbia University’s and the École française de Rome and resident at the Canadian Centre for Architecture.

ABSTRACT This article examines the effects of 1968 student protests on architectural education and epistemology within the European and American contexts. Juxtaposing the transformations within the north-American and Italian contexts, it shows how the concepts of urban renewal, in the U.S., and ‘nuova dimensione’, in Italy, were progressively abandoned.

Kilgore 2018 Acknowledgements I would not have been able to complete this dissertation without the assistance and guidance of many people. First and foremost, the love, support, and inspiration of Alison and Grayson kept me going during the darkest moments of the dissertation process. Their belief in me means more than anything else. This dissertation is dedicated to them. I can only hope that I have many years ahead to spend encouraging them in their endeavors. My parents, Del Kilgore and Judy Kilgore, and my sister Alison F. Kilgore, have been my biggest backers, cheering me on as I pursued my wanderlust and passions. I will always be thankful to them for their unending patience and love, especially in those moments when I needed it the most. My parents were also my first academic role models. Growing up, I had a close and personal view of how teachers dedicate their lives to helping others grow. My thirst to read, write, learn, and share this knowledge with others is a product of their values and actions. Soon after I began graduate school a decade ago, I was welcomed into a new and fantastic family.

According to conventional wisdom, it began almost immediately after the end of the world war in 1945 and continued until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. However, according to another theory that commands respect, the war resumed in 2007 with Putin’s Munich speech, and 1991-2007 was only a hiatus in a long war that is not yet over. This little book covers the war in the period 1945-1991… Yuval Noah Harari has summarized it thus: “The Soviet Union entered the [Second World] war as an isolated communist pariah. It emerged as one of the two global superpowers and the leader of an expanding international bloc. By 1949 eastern Europe became a Soviet satellite, the Chinese communist party had won the Chinese Civil War, and the United States was gripped by anti-communist hysteria. Revolutionary and anti-colonial movements throughout the world looked longingly towards Moscow and Beijing, while liberalism became identified with the racist European empires. As these empires collapsed they were usually replaced by either military dictatorships or socialist regimes, not liberal democracies.
