In Garageland: Rock, Youth and Modernity (Communication and Society)

In Garageland: Rock, Youth and Modernity (Communication and Society)

by Ove Sernhede (Author), Johan Fornäs (Author), Ulf Lindberg (Author)

Synopsis

Seeking to understand youth culture through its visual and musical expression, In Garageland presents a pioneering ethnographic study of rock bands and their fans.
Topics include class as well as sexual conflicts; mainstream and deviant subcultures, and the complex social, psychological and ethical relationships which exist within youth culture.
In Garageland develops the notion of youth culture research as a way of mirroring our grown-up identities and of staking out the limits of late modern culture in general.

Media Reviews
A very welcome addition to critical writing on youth and popular culture. In Garageland dynamically combines a range of analytical approaches with detailed empirical work to produce a fascinating account of the place of music in everyday life.
