In the 1960s, Australian youth became part of a revolution that remade the cultural and political maps of the Western world. Vietnam, Paris, Prague, Chicago and Kathmandu all became part of the Australian experience. All the old prescriptions, prohibitions and authorities were challenged. Through style, dress, appearance, drugs, relationships, sexuality, ideas, politics, music, art and the search for the self, Australian youth developed its own special mix of generational, social, cultural and New Left politics. -- Course Website
