Peer reviewedWallimann, Isidor; Zito, George V. – Youth and Society, 1984
Relates the intensity of youth protest movements in the 1960s to cohort size, which was large because of the post-World War II baby boom. Reviews literature on socialization and class expectations among members of large birth cohorts. Associates the youth movement with protesters' perceived economic threats to their middle-class lifestyle. (KH)
