The Management of Dissent is an analysis of the student protests on seven of Illinois' public institutions of higher learning following the deaths of four students at Kent State University on May 4, 1970. This book plays a major role in adding a policy related dimension to the 1960s protest literature because it goes beyond a mere coverage of the major personalities of the period and focuses upon policy outcomes.
