This book examines youth cultural responses to the political,
economic and socio-cultural changes that affected Britain in the
aftermath of the Second World War. In particular, it considers the
extent to which elements of youth culture and popular music served
to contest the notion of 'consensus' that historians and social
commentators have suggested served to frame British polity from the
late 1940s into the 1970s. The collection argues that aspects of
youth culture appear to have revealed notable fault-lines in and
across British society and provided alternative perspectives and
reactions to the presumptions of mainstream political and cultural
opinion in the period. This, perhaps, was most acute in the period
leading up to and after the seemingly pivotal moment of Margaret
Thatcher's election to prime minister in 1979. This book was
originally published as a special issue of Contemporary British
History.
