Hebdige [...] is concerned with the UK's postwar, music-centred, white working-class subcultures, from teddy boys to mods and rockers to skinheads and punks.' - Rolling Stone\u003cbr\u003eWith enviable precision and wit Hebdige has addressed himself to a complex topic - the meanings behind the fashionable exteriors of working-class youth subcultures - approaching them with a sophisticated theoretical apparatus that combines semiotics, the sociology of devience and Marxism and come up with a very stimulating short book - Time Out\u003cbr\u003eThis book is an attempt to subject the various youth-protest movements of Britain in the last 15 years to the sort of Marxist, structuralist, semiotic analytical techniques propagated by, above all, Roland Barthes. The book is recommended whole-heartedly to anyone who would like fresh ideas about some of the most stimulating music of the rock era - The New York Times","brand":"Blue Vase Bulk","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 9780415039499-001","offer_id":43737773342781,"sku":"9780415039499-001","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/20875343482335.jpg?v=1790693752","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/subculture-the-meaning-of-style","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
