1 68: Illusion and Paradox Alhelí de María Alvarado-Díaz Introduction This seminar will expose you to classical texts in political theory relating to revolutionary action, political ethics and social militancy from the Communist Manifesto to The course will explore the idea of revolutionary ethics as conceived by Western and non-western political philosophers and militants. The discussion will stress the connection between philosophers and revolutionary leaders and the transformation of the idea of radical politics through the dialogue between these two discourses (the philosophical and the militant). Authors will be examined according to their historical context and their role in the tradition of political thought and the history of radical politics from 1848 to the mid-sixties. The purpose is to expose you to different discourses of political militancy and radical politics and to reflect on the ethical implications of the history of radical thought and action in comparative perspective. We will explore the pursuit of an ideal society through the history of radical movements from 1848 to the social mobilization of 1968 militants across the world. Several central questions will orient this course: How did grassroots movements appropriate the philosophy of radical politics and the theory of revolutionary mobilization, engendering a historical form of ethics and social struggle? How did collective organization strive for an idea of social justice and civil equality? How did the narrative of individual rights orient militant politics through 1968? In what sense did the sixties represent a moment of historical culmination in the difficult journey of revolutionary politics from Marx to the young militants of the May Movement? How did the political shortcomings of the sixties influence the rise of political individualism and the decline in political engagement? The course will conclude with a discussion of the reception of the sixties and the prospects of militant engagement and collective political life today. Alvarado-Díaz, Alhelí de María
