	The Sixties - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Sixties in its most obvious sense refers to the decade between 1960 and 1969 (see: 1960s), but the expression has taken on a wider meaning over the past 20 years.
		But the term Sixties has become a convenient shorthand for all the new, exciting, radical, subversive and/or dangerous (according to one’s viewpoint) events and trends of the period.
		Most conservative Republicans know that the Sixties students and their children are now a powerful middle-class constituency whose residual social liberalism cannot be infringed on too far without provoking a political response.

	TAP: Vol 7, Iss. 26. Straight From the Sixties. Todd Gitlin. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The savagers are the sixties' shadow, the negative double of that decade, energized by its hideous memory, dependent upon it for self-definition.
		The absolutist passions of the late sixties inevitably relented in the press of practical exigency, in the flush of semi-success, or the afterglow of defeat.
		The crippling irony is that one of the strongest legacies of sixties movements is distrust of the very government, however "reinvented," that used to be liberalism's preferred vehicle for reform.

		Sixties Design is a documentation and analysis of that era during which belief in modernist design began to crumble.
		As modernism--the foremost design mode of the 20th century--reached its golden years, it came to be considered by many an autocratic, almost fascistically impersonal movement that strove to raise the standards of large groups by ignoring the peccadilloes of individuals.

	A Tribute from Havana to John Lennon and the Sixties
		It will also be a permanent homage to a generation that wanted to transform the world, and to the rebellious spirit, innovative, of the artist who helped forge that generation and at the same time is one of its most authentic symbols.
		The Sixties were much more than a period in a century that is ending.
		Before their impetus fell dogmas and fetishes, they broke the molds of pharisee and banality, they turned back the dull mediocrity of an unjust and false society that reduces humanity to merchandise and converts everything into false gold.

	The Sixties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The sixties, with all its claims of ignoring the status quo, was more about fitting in than anything else.
		This was a generation (the first in modern history) to glorify all the things that are considered perverse and wrong by any enlightened society.
		And so, to fit in, people pretended that what they were doing was challenging the "establishment" when in fact the hippie movement became the establishment for a significant portion of society.

		The 60s also saw the most spectacular technical achievement of the 20th Century when America won the Space race and man landed on the moon in July 1969 - but the greatest shock of the decade was the assassination of President Kennedy in 1963.
