Ramparts Magazine’s Vietnam War

Shem Fleenor

Ramparts Magazine’s Vietnam War examines the publication’s depiction of America’s war in Indochina, which was the magazine’s greatest focus. Ramparts published more essays about Vietnam than about any other single topic. The magazine also went out of business just a few months after the official end of the war. Chapters examine the magazine’s depiction of Vietnam as several wars in one. Chapter One unpacks the magazine’s depiction of the war as a cultural phenomenon and abstraction that happened 13,000 miles away from the continental United States. Chapter Two examines the magazine’s depiction of corporate interests in America’s war in Indochina, followed by a chapter that examines Washington’s war in Vietnam. That chapter is followed by an examination of the war lived by American soldiers, as well as the war endured by the Vietnamese people. The final chapter examines Ramparts Magazine’s unflinching advocacy of the antiwar movement in the U.S.
