This book explores the new politics of leisure and pleasure in
relation to a range of popular activities. Current generations in
Western societies are essentially recipients of the changes that
the Sixties - fabled decade of sex, drugs and rock n' roll - left
behind. In their leisure lives - whether drinking, reading, surfing
the net, taking drugs, going to a comedy gig, watching TV, taking a
holiday, downloading music, supporting a football club, having a
bet, having sex or simply roaming the countryside - people seem to
enjoy unprecedented freedoms. But what are these freedoms? How are
they exercised? And to what extent have traditional controls been
relinquished?
