Book Synopsis The American War in Contemporary Vietnam by : Christina Schwenkel
Download or read book The American War in Contemporary Vietnam written by Christina Schwenkel. This book was released on 2009-07-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christina Schwenkel's absorbing study explores how the "American War" is remembered and commemorated in Vietnam today -- in official and unofficial histories and in everyday life. Schwenkel analyzes visual representations found in monuments and martyrs' cemeteries, museums, photography and art exhibits, battlefield tours, and related sites of "trauma tourism." In these transnational spaces, American and Vietnamese memories of the war intersect in ways profoundly shaped by global economic liberalization and the return of American citizens as tourists, pilgrims, and philanthropists.

Book Synopsis Making Sense of the Vietnam Wars by : Mark Philip Bradley
Download or read book Making Sense of the Vietnam Wars written by Mark Philip Bradley. This book was released on 2008-04-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making sense of the wars for Vietnam has had a long history. The question "why Vietnam?" dominated American and Vietnamese political life for much of the length of the wars and has continued to be asked in the decades since they ended. This volume brings together the work of eleven scholars to examine the conceptual and methodological shifts that have marked the contested terrain of Vietnam War scholarship. Editors Marilyn Young and Mark Bradley's superb group of renowned contributors spans the generations--including those who were active during wartime, along with scholars conducting research in Vietnamese sources and uncovering new sources in the United States, former Soviet Union, China, and Eastern and Western Europe. Ranging in format from top-down reconsiderations of critical decision-making moments in Washington, Hanoi, and Saigon, to microhistories of the war that explore its meanings from the bottom up, these essays comprise the most up-to-date collection of scholarship on the controversial historiography of the Vietnam Wars.

Book Synopsis Making Connections in Viet Nam by : Jessica M. Frazier
Download or read book Making Connections in Viet Nam written by Jessica M. Frazier. This book was released on 2013. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Connections in Viet Nam analyzes how the context of the Viet Nam War shaped U.S. activism in the 1960s -- in particular, the activism of women. By looking at women's antiwar activism, this dissertation locates women on an international stage when most histories of women's activism in the 1960s focus on the domestic front of the civil rights and second-wave feminist movements. This work turns to the transnational and international activism of African American, Chicana, Asian American, and white women. In doing so, it joins conversations that distinguish between transnational and international identities, realms, and actions. -- From the author's abstract.
