London’s Working-Class Youth and the Making of Post-Victorian Britain, 1958–1971 - Palgrave Studies in the History of Subcultures and Popular Music
Felix Fuhg
This book examines the emergence of modern working-class youth culture through the perspective of an urban history of post-war Britain, with a particular focus on the influence of young people and their culture on Britain?s self-image as a country emerging from the constraints of its post-Victorian, imperial past.
Each section of the book ? Society, City, Pop, and Space ? considers in detail the ways in which working-class youth culture corresponded with a fast-changing metropolitan and urban society in the years following the decline of the British Empire.
Was teenage culture rooted in the urban experience and the transformation of working-class neighbourhoods? Did youth subcultures emerge simply as a reaction to Britain's changing racial demographic? To what extent did leisure venues and institutions function as laboratories for a developing British pop culture, which ultimately helped Britain re-establish its prominence on the world stage?
These questions and more are answered in this book.
