This volume seeks to address what its contributors take to be an
important lacuna in youth cultural research: a lack of interest in
the phenomenon of collectivity and collective aspects of youth
culture. It gathers scholars from diverse research backgrounds -
ranging from contemporary subculture studies, fan culture studies,
musicology, youth transitions studies, criminology, technology and
work-life studies - who all address collective phenomena in young
lives. Ranging thematically from music experience and festival
participation, via soccer fan culture, leisure, street art, youth
climate activism, to the design of EU youth policies and Australian
government 'project' work with young migrants, the chapters develop
a variety of approaches to collective aspects to young cultural
practices and material cultures. To establish these new approaches,
the contributors combine new theories and fresh empirical work;
they critically engage with the tradition and they complement or
even reconfigure traditional approaches in and around the field.
The book will be of interest to researchers in a broad range of
areas in and around the field of youth culture studies including
post-subculture studies, cultural studies, musicology, fan-culture
and youth transition research, but it is also of acute interest for
theoretically interested sociologists. The volume offers a new
afterword by French sociologist Michel Maffesoli.
