- Theories
- MARXISTS from the CCCS believe that things such as high unemployment,
inner city decay, racial tensions and strikes lead to
spectacular youth subcultures.
- SPECTACULAR YOUTH CULTURES - A group of most of the time young people who share
the same norms and values and can often be seen as
resisting against society. Examples of theses are;
Punks, Mods, Skinheads, Teddyboys
- HALL & JEFFERSON - TEDDYBOYS : In the 1950s there was high
employment. They felt that youths were excluded and therefore felt
resentful. They used jackets to symbolise them trying to be like their
middle class superiors.
- HEBDIGE - MODS: The 1960s had high employment for youths. Working
class people used their own money to create a style which was
resistant to middle class. They had Italian suits and scooters in order to
show they could be smart and cool
- CLARKE - SKINHEADS: In the 1970s involved things such as unemployment,
decline of working class industries and racial tensions. Clarke thought that
working class identity was under threat due to economic conditions. This led
them to over-exaggerating it as a form of resistance. E.g. denim, dungarees,
steel toe caps
- PHIL COHEN - SKINHEADS: HE believes they feel
threatened and focus on reclaiming territory (racism). He
also thinks that football hooliganism is an expression of
ownership of the ground and surrounding area.
