Noting that the "Third World" served as both inspiration and model for many of the radical left movements of the 1960s, the editors (both of Northeastern U.) of this collection wondered why there was so little effort to incorporate the Third World into the general historiography of the radical 1960s. The 12 case studies they present here begin to fill the gap through examinations of 1960s radicalism in Brazil, Zimbabwe, South Africa, and Guyana; instances of radicalism crossing borders, including the impact of the Chinese Cultural Revolution on Third World movements, reports on India's communist Naxalite movement in radical periodicals, and relations between international solidarity movements and the Third World; and student activism in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo), Mexico, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
