  • Descrição: Forty years ago 'Social Alternatives' was launched into a world that seems so very different from today. Forty years is half a lifetime, itself almost a full working life for many. Few under the age of 55 are likely to have active political memories of that year, assuming that most children have little political awareness before the age of 15. Almost no one under the age of 60 will have voted in the 1977 election, even with the voting age being reduced from 21 to 18. Politics in the mid-seventies becomes history, as did the Vietnam war, the Cuban Missile crisis, the referendum to ban the Communist party and the Second World War. People talk about it, even reminisce, but it was so long ago.
