Description
This anthology challenges traditional views of youth cultures by exploring how individuals continue to participate in their chosen scenes into adulthood and middle-age. Featuring original research case studies from around the world, the book examines how participants reconcile their involvement with ageing bodies, older identities, and adult responsibilities.
By shedding new light on this often-overlooked aspect of life trajectories, Ageing and Youth Cultures offers a fresh perspective on fashion, popular music, and identity. This collection is essential reading for students and scholars researching or studying questions of youth culture across various disciplines.
