Youth SubCulture

Hegemony: leadership or dominance, especially by one state or social group over others


Dick Hebdige: Subculture, The meaning of style (1979) 

   Richard 'Dick' Hebdige (born 1951) is a british media theorist and socialist most commonly associated with the study of subcultures and its resistance against mainstream society 

"Members of a subculture often signal their membership through a distinctive and symbolic use of style which includes fashions, mannerisms and music." Hebdige (1979)


Fashion -  What we wear/Look like (Clothing and make-up)

Mannerisms - The way in which we act

Music - What we listen to
