Global Punk examines the global phenomenon of DIY (do-it-yourself)
punk, arguing that it provides a powerful tool for political
resistance and personal self-empowerment. Drawing examples from
across the evolution of punk - from the streets of 1976 London to
the alleys of contemporary Jakarta - Global Punk is both
historically rich and global in scope. Looking beyond the music to
explore DIY punk as a lived experience, Global Punk examines the
ways in which punk contributes to the process of disalienation and
political engagement. The book critically examines the impact that
DIY punk has had on both individuals and communities, and offers
chapter-length investigations of two important aspects of DIY punk
culture: independent record labels and self-published zines.
Grounded in scholarly theories, but written in a highly accessible
style, Global Punk shows why DIY punk remains a vital cultural form
for hundreds of thousands of people across the globe today.
