A sociological examination from a feminist perspective of the influences and effects of various subcultural elements on adolescent girls.

Feminism and Youth Culture collects together eight separate essays on female youth culture written by Angela McRobbie over a period of almost 13 years. Topics include the changing place of romance in girls' comics and magazines, the everyday culture of working class girls, the appeal of dance narratives for pre-teenage readers and viewers, teenage mothers and feminist critiques of subcultural theory.

Girls and subcultures; settling accounts with subcultures - a feminist critique; the culture of working class girls; the politics of feminist research - between talk, text and action; "Jackie" magazine - romantic individualism and the teenage girl; "Jackie" and "Just Seventeen" - girls' comics and magazines in the 1980s; dance narratives and fantasies of achievement; teenage mothers - an new social state?
