Sumario:This piece captures the tension between globalization and the Nation State by looking at how the global revolutions of 1968 elicited a conservative response in the “Global South”. It first focuses on the spread of revolt across developing societies in and around the year 1968. It then shows the extent to which local elites responded to the challenge from the streets by way of strengthening their authoritarian grip over society and by propping up their own connections with the United States in the context of the global Cold War.
