 H-France Reviews
Ross argues that May was the culmination of the efforts of worker and third-worldist militants during the early sixties, a period that she terms its “prehistory” (p.
Ross sees May as both a political and intellectual starting point: “A new renegade historical practice could continue the desire of ’68 to give voice to the ‘voiceless’” (p.
Those--such as Ross and Maurice Rajsfus--who emphasize the significance of post-May “repression” neglect the importance of the long-term growth of tolerance in the “long sixties.”[8] This tolerance allowed the operation of radical bastions--such as the Sorbonne, Censier, Odéon Theater, the medical and law schools--until well into June or even at the beginning of July.

 May '68 and Its Afterlives -- Kristin Ross
Kristin Ross shows how the current official memory of May '68 came to serve a political agenda antithetical to the movement's aspirations.
She examines the roles played by sociologists, repentant ex-student leaders, and the mainstream media in giving what was a political event a predominantly cultural and ethical meaning.
But in a deeper sense, it is about what has been made of May. Kristin Ross is, to my knowledge, the first person working either here or in France to take on the complexity of thirty years of ideological discourse about May '68.

 BOOKFORUM | dec/jan 2005
It is useful to bear this odd little anecdote in mind as one reads the essays collected by Andrew Ross and Kristin Ross (no relation) in Anti-Americanism, the splendid cover of which features a ravenous man-eating shark, its skin composed of the globe photographed from a stratospheric Alien perspective.
Kristin Ross, Karl, and, to a degree, Pratt show the reader something of no less importance.
After a lengthy but lucid discussion of leftist politics in the United States since the '40s, and of the effective use of the "anti-Americanism" card by right-wing publicists since the late '60s, Ross goes on to argue that there is nonetheless an element of truth to their accusation.

Kristin would always be her little sister, in more ways than one.
Put her alone in a room with a man like Ross Sloan for longer than it took to fuck, and there'd be bloodshed.
She wasn't even envious of the way he looked at Kristin with that pathetically adoring gaze, like she was the queen of his world and he'd do anything, absolutely anything, for her.

Kristin and Ross were elsewhere at a rehearsal dinner, but they and the rest of the wedding party joined up at the hotel later on.
Kristin and Ross exchanged their vows, and both wept for joy at the thought of qualifying just-in-time for 2003 federal tax benefits.
Reverend Judd declared it the beginning of a "Happy, Happy, Happy Household" but there was some discussion as to whether the more accurate term was "Mucho Merry Matrimony," "Nifty Nuptials", or "Convivial Conjugality." Afterward, the celebrations moved to a nearby country club, where lots of food, champagne and comraderie led into the New Year.

 Commitment, commercialism and the dawning of image culture:
Thanks to the work of Kristin Ross (1995) in particular, the significance of the changes which affected France in the 1950s and 60s is becoming increasingly recognised.
In her recent study, Kristin Ross has characterised the period of the 1950s and 60s as marking the ‘dawning of image culture’ (1995: 12).
She takes this to mean in particular the rise of the visual image in culture, as film and especially television begin to assert themselves, and the world becomes mediated through image as much as, if not more than, text.

 Fast Cars, Clean Bodies - The MIT Press
In this analysis of a startling cultural transformation Kristin Ross finds the contradictions of the period embedded in its various commodities and cultural artifacts - automobiles, washing machines, women's magazines, film, popular fiction, even structuralism - as well as in the practices that shape, determine, and delimit their uses.
The automobile, the new cult of cleanliness in the capital and the colonies, the waning of Sartre and de Beauvoir as the couple of national attention, and the emergence of reshaped, functionalist masculinities (revolutionary, corporate, and structural) become the key elements in this prehistory of postmodernism in France.
She shows how the realist fiction and film of the period, as well as the work of social theorists such as Barthes, Lefebvre, and Morin who began at the time to conceptualize "everyday life," laid bare the disruptions and the social costs of events.

And she argues that the logic of the racism prevalent in France today, focused on the figure of the immigrant worker, is itself the outcome of the French state's embrace of capitalist modernization ideology in the 1950s and 1960s.
From the Jean Baudrillard school of concise and sexy theory comes Kristin Ross's book on French culture, a culture confronted with American post-war consumerism, cars, couples, L'Express magazine, structuralism as well as the political decolonialization of Algeria and other former colonies.
In this substantial inter-disciplinary work, Ross interrogates films (Mon Oncle, Pierrot le Fou, Un Homme et Une Femme) and advertisements ("Tout s'y reflete") that reflect (Tout s'y reflete) the rapid colonialization of the every day life of the French bourgeois.
