Britain's youth movements are regarded worldwide as pinnacles of musical, fashion and artistic expression. As a reaction to post-War austerity and social conservatism, the youth of Britain have consistently broken the mold, pioneering counter-culture movements across the world and shrugging off the shackles of old authority. The authors have amassed a wealth of exclusive interviews with key players from all the iconic groups, as well as stunning unpublished photographs from personal collections. The result is a beautifully produced visual and literary tribute to Britain's vibrant young underbelly and the passionate cauldron of creativity they continue to stir up.

Book excerpt: Body Style reveals the subcultural body as a site for understanding subcultural identity, resistance, agency, and fashion.

Drawing on specific subcultural examples and interviews with members, Body Style explores the subcultural body and its style within global culture.

Download or read book How the world can be improved written by Rafael Barracuda and published by Smashwords. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we want to improve life on earth and our own lives, it is necessary to find a new guide: one that can meet the challenges of our time and of the future. The old guides were good in principle, but have become bogged down in calcified structures, often accomplishing the opposite of what was originally intended. The development of society makes it necessary to find new guiding principles from time to time. To do so, however, we need to know what the history was, how the present society is structured, and how it is likely to develop. The author aims to discover this by highlighting the following topics: Information: truth and lies Conspiracies: real and imagined conspiracies Nodes and choices: in history and as individuals Education Religions Cultures and subcultures Good and evil Resolving conflicts Freedom Justice Security How a poor country can become rich. Nature and the environment and global warming Art Creativity The meaning of life Peace Reform of the United Nations Health: Physical and mental Advice on how to become happy What ultimately matters is how to safeguard and promote life on earth. According to the author, making the right choice at certain crucial moments (called "nodes") is of great importance. Ultimately, it is about love and the unity of all and everything,
Download or read book Subcultural Theory written by J. Patrick Williams and published by Polity. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subcultural phenomena continue to draw attention from many areas of contemporary society, including the news media, the marketing and fashion industries, concerned parents, religious, and other citizen groups, as well as academia. Research into these phenomena has spanned the humanities and social sciences, and the subcultural theories that underlie this work are similarly interdisciplinary. Subcultural Theory brings these diverse analytic issues together in a single text, offering readers a concise discussion of the major concepts and debates that have developed over more than eighty years of subcultural research, including style, stratification, resistance, identity, media and "post subcultures". The text emphasizes methods, concepts, and analysis rather than mere descriptions of individual subcultures, all the while ensuring readers will gain insight into past and present youthful subcultures, including mod, punk, hardcore, straightedge, messenger, goth, riot grrrl, hip-hop, skinhead, and extreme metal, among others. The book closes with an assessment of the subculture concept as a viable and useful sociological tool in comparison with other fields of study including social movements and fandom.
Download or read book Lifestyles and Subcultures written by Luigi Berzano and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-22 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifestyles and subcultures are tools through which people say – to themselves and to others – who they think they are, who they think they are similar to, and who they think they are different from. Lifestyles and subcultures are ways which people adopt to look at their own lives, and to try to keep together different roles, different practices and different realms which they are involved in. Lifestyles and subcultures are lenses through which we, as observers, analyze society, and orientate ourselves within it, looking for similarities and differences among individuals and collectivities which allow us to understand their thoughts and their actions. This book presents the main analytical approaches through which lifestyles and subcultures have been studied, and also proposes a new interpretative perspective. Today a growing panorama of social phenomena and processes possess intermediate characteristics with regard to those which in the past were identified either as lifestyles or as subcultures. The hypothesis is that consequently these phenomena could be explained and interpreted by means of an analytical framework developed by the intersection of these two perspectives, and the last part of the book is therefore devoted to the presentation of this innovative framework. This book provides new lenses and a fresh view to try to both grasp and understand a constantly-changing reality.
Download or read book Brand New China written by Jing Wang and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-10 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One part riveting account of fieldwork and one part rigorous academic study, Brand New China offers a unique perspective on the advertising and marketing culture of China. Jing Wang’s experiences in the disparate worlds of Beijing advertising agencies and the U.S. academy allow her to share a unique perspective on China during its accelerated reintegration into the global market system. Brand New China offers a detailed, penetrating, and up-to-date portrayal of branding and advertising in contemporary China. Wang takes us inside an advertising agency to show the influence of American branding theories and models. She also examines the impact of new media practices on Chinese advertising, deliberates on the convergence of grassroots creative culture and viral marketing strategies, samples successful advertising campaigns, provides practical insights about Chinese consumer segments, and offers methodological reflections on pop culture and advertising research. This book unveils a “brand new” China that is under the sway of the ideology of global partnership while struggling not to become a mirror image of the United States. Wang takes on the task of showing where Western thinking works in China, where it does not, and, perhaps most important, where it creates opportunities for cross-fertilization. Thanks to its combination of engaging vignettes from the advertising world and thorough research that contextualizes these vignettes, Brand New China will be of interest to industry participants, students of popular culture, and the general reading public interested in learning about a rapidly transforming Chinese society.

Download or read book For the Culture written by Marcus Collins and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The architect of some of the most famous ad campaigns of the last decade argues that culture is the most powerful vehicle for influencing behavior, and shows readers how to harness culture to inspire other people to share their vision. We all try to influence others in our daily lives. Whether you are a manager motivating your team, an employee making a big presentation, an activist staging a protest, or an artist promoting your music, you are in the business of getting people to take action. In For the Culture, Marcus Collins argues true cultural engagement is the most powerful vehicle for influencing behavior. If you want to get people to move, you must first understand the underlying cultural forces that make them tick. Collins uses stories from his own work as an award-winning marketer—from spearheading digital strategy for Beyoncé, to working on Apple and Nike collaborations, to the successful launch of the Brooklyn Nets NBA team—to break down the ways in which culture influences behavior and how readers can do the same. With a deep perspective, and built on a century’s worth of data, For the Culture gives readers the tools they need to inspire collective change by leveraging the cheat codes used by some of the biggest brands in the world. This is the only book you’ll need if you want to influence people to take action.

Download or read book Whispering Winds of Change written by Stuart Wilde and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 1995-03-07 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stuart Wilde, one of the most profound and original thinkers of our time, brings us Whispering Winds of Change. Whispering Winds of Change will appeal to lovers of alternative ideas and philosophies. Stuart Wilde challenges us to stand outside the usual paradigms of consciousness as "fringe dwellers". He asks us to observe the dying throes of what he calls the "world ego" - the embodiment of the manipulative and dominating force of the status quo. With his characteristic candor and wit, he plots a fascinating comparison between the overall global destiny and an individual's personal, sacred, inner journey. Wilde believes through quieting the ego and creating a rotation out of the three-dimensional world of external reality to the fourth dimension of the inner being, we can each offer serenity and healing to ourselves, and the rest of the world. Like his other books, this work is full of compelling ideas, unusual perceptions, and esoteric concepts for individuals who want to progress inwardly, while making a success of their lives in the external world.
