Subcultures
Emerald Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-80262-664-3 (ISBN)
Illustrating the diverse application of the 'subculture' concept within sociology, this edited collection showcases insights ranging from studies on music subcultures, to groups who are formed through their leisurely pursuits (e.g. live action roleplaying and backpacking), and how these groups develop their sense of self and identity. Using a diverse range of approaches, the chapters illustrate the flexibility in the subculture concept - at times stretching the term to its breaking point.
This lively collection of articles is of interest to those wanting to know more about the core principles of symbolic interactionism, and the diversity of human life.
