Notes
[1] This article considers only book publications; for an analysis of the wider public discourse at the 40th anniversary, see CitationGordon (forthcoming).
[2] Cf. Foot (Citation2008).
[3] More substantive recent autobiographies from the ‘usual suspects’ include Krivine (Citation2006) as well as the English translation of Debray (Citation2007), while Gildea (Citation2009) discusses contributions by, amongst others, Jean-Pierre Duteil and Alain Geismar. In a neat historical symmetry, Alain Krivine's political ‘son’, Olivier Besancenot, has now offered his own account of Régis Debray's early political ‘father’, Che Guevara—for a critique of which see Martel (Citation2008).
[4] Sirinelli has also co-edited a useful special issue of Vingtième Siècle, no. 98 (April–June 2008) entitled L'ombre portée de Mai 68.
