Description
Exploring the global history of the skinhead style, this book delves into its origins in 1960s Britain and its complex evolution over time.
The skinhead movement began as an eclectic mix of music, fashion, and attitude, but it soon became entangled with far-right ideology. This study offers a comprehensive overview of the skinhead phenomenon from its inception to its persistence two decades later, examining how identity, youth culture, sports, politics, and community intersected to shape its diverse and often contradictory nature.
Through this historical lens, the book sheds light on the intricate relationships between aesthetics, ideology, and social context that have defined the skinhead movement over the years.
