Pointing out those years as a moment in which a tumultuous social conscience, strongly influenced by the New Left, broke with the static rationalization of modernity, the author analyzes his radicalization in Marxism during his student years at Harvard and his eventual distancing from it. He also explores how the Vietnam war and specific events of the time shaped an entire generation, through pointing to the possible existence of alternative social orders.]]></p></abstract>

Señalando esos años como un momento en el que una tumultuosa conciencia social, fuertemente influida por la Nueva Izquierda, rompió con la racionalización estática de la modernidad, el autor analiza su radicalización en el marxismo durante su estancia en Harvard y su eventual distanciamiento del mismo. Asimismo, relata cómo la guerra de Vietnam y ciertos eventos específicos de la época moldearon a toda una generación, a través de apuntar hacia la posible existencia de órdenes sociales alternativos.]]></p></abstract>
