1960s Writers and Social Critique
As a social system we seek the establishment of a democracy of individual participation, governed by two central aims: that the individual share in those social decisions determining the quality and direction of his life; that society be organized to encourage independence in men and provide the media for their common participation.HTMLBREAK... As students for a democratic society, we are committed to stimulating this kind of social movement, this kind of vision and program in campus and community across the country.
