War and the Ivory Tower - Algeria and VietnamPaperback
In War and the Ivory Tower, David L. He compares American responses to the Vietnam War with French responses to the Algerian War, finding many similarities in the way intellectuals voiced their outrage at the policies of their governments. Schalk explores the public role of the intellectual in times of national crisis.
Schalk is Kenan Professor of History, emeritus, at Vassar College. At a time when national crises abound but protest is out of fashion, and intellectuals are possibly a dying species, this book presents a needed reexamination of what it means for intellectuals to speak out on issues of international importance. David L. Benjamin Stora is a professor of Maghribi history at the National Institute of Oriental Civilizations and Language in Paris.
His works include Algeria, 1830-2000: A Short History. George C. Herring is the Alumni Professor of History at the University of
