Notes of the Month
Abstract
1975 was not only the year of the Kerr-Fraser coup and Labor’s electoral defeat - it was also the year of revolutionary victory in Indochina, of final collapse of the last remaining colonial empire (Portugal's) and of turbulent struggle in Portugal itself which ended in set-back for the left.
