Kommentar
In recent years, historians have produced a rich body of research on the 1970's, trying to uncover the decade's effects on the shape of the contemporary United States. This endeavour has rarely generated a consensus. On one side, scholars have described the 1970's as a dark age of contemporary American society, a time of bleak economic prospects, growing inequality, “cultural anxiety and moral stagnation” (Borstelmann, 2012); the 1970's peculiar traits have been de-emphasized and conflated into “the long 1960's” (Hall, 2008), or framed as the incubation chamber of the 1980's (Collins, 2006). On the other, the 1970's have been described as “pivotal decade” (Stein, 2010), an age of global change (Ferguson, Maier, Sargent and Manela, 2010), a time able to reset trends in the intellectual, social, and political realms (Rodgers, 2011).
