Description

In War and the Ivory Tower, David L. Schalk explores the general public role of the intellectual in times of national crisis. He compares American responses to the Vietnam War with French responses to the Algerian War, finding many similarities in the way in which intellectuals voiced their outrage on the policies in their governments. At a time when national crises abound but protest is out of favor, and intellectuals are in all probability a dying species, this book presents a wanted reexamination of what it manner for intellectuals to talk out on problems with international importance.
