Brian Wilson
Fight, Flight, or Chill [EPUB ebook]
Subcultures, Youth, and Rave into the Twenty-First Century

Supporto

Copertina di Brian Wilson: Fight, Flight, or Chill (ePUB)

Fight, Flight or Chill explores the extent to which raver youths’ experiences are constrained or determined by individualistic, high-tech, mass-mediated Western culture in which alienated and unfulfilled youth are apparently more at-risk for escapist and thrill-seeking behaviours. Wilson considers how raver youth creatively and proactively subvert these constraints in novel and empowering ways – from political activism to symbolic and stylistic expressions of resistance to community-building efforts. He also discusses the globalization and political economy of rave and youth culture and examines the ideologies that underlie simple solutions to the complex concerns over young people today.
