During the early 1980s, large parts of Europe were swept with riots
and youth revolts. Radicalised young people occupied buildings and
clashed with the police in cities such as Zurich, Berlin and
Amsterdam, while in Great Britain and France, 'migrant' youths
protested fiercely against their underprivileged position and
police brutality. Was there a link between the youth revolts in
different European cities, and if so, how were they connected and
how did they influence each other? These questions are central in
this volume. This book covers case studies from countries in both
Eastern and Western Europe and focuses not only on political
movements such as squatting, but also on political subcultures such
as punk, as well as the interaction between them. In doing so, it
is the first historical collection with a transnational and
interdisciplinary perspective on youth, youth revolts and social
movements in the 1980s.
