The first remarkable signs of the skinhead subculture, according to the current literature, date back to 1985, but the first signs of skinhead can be traced between 1983 and 1984. The anti-communist mood in society and growing community intolerance towards the gypsy population have paved the way for far-right thinking. This was further stimulated by the infiltration of news from foreign medias, which considered ultra-right action to be a sensation, and because of this marketing step, the population was so supplied with hot news. The relationship between the punk movement and the skinhead subculture is basically that skinheads are merging from punk movement because of the influence of socalled Oi movement or by the imagination of foreign media, such as the 100+1 magazine of foreign interests. The right-wing skins experienced its own Renaissance when the Orlík music group emerged, which, however, evaded from neo-Nazism promoted abroad and built its values on patriotism and racism, although some of those texts attracted a number of those fans. With the collapse of the communist regime and the opening of the information flow, several subcultures began to be profiled by yet unavailable information.

Of all the California Bay Area bands of the 1970s and 80s, none gained the notoriety nor the international influence of the Dead Kennedys. The very name Dead Kennedys, which surely attracted many to their shows and records in the first place, demonstrates the effort and success of this band’s utilization of shock aesthetics for the furtherance of their highly politicized, highly critical form of punk music and art.Yet, shock aesthetics alone wouldn’t set the Dead Kennedys apart from many other punk bands who deliberately utilize shock to inspire particular responses from audiences, media, and public personalities. Nor would the Dead Kennedys’ radical politics or sense of humor alone differentiate them from many other groups. This essay argues that it is the precise amalgamation of these features that present the work of the Dead Kennedys are particular important and fruitful for philosophical engagement. In other words, it is the fact that embedded within and inseparable from their shocking aesthetics is an acerbic sense of humor that seems to take great pleasure or even fun in political critique.To analyze the shock and humor of the Dead Kennedys music and the persona of Jello Biafra, this essay turns to Kantian definitions of the ‘sublime,’ Freud on the ‘uncanny,’ Hakim Bey and on the political efficacy of shocking aesthetics, and Roland Barthes’s concept of the ‘punctum.’ These philosophical terms and concepts are mobilized to unpack and analyze the Dead Kennedys, and the Dead Kennedys are in turn mobilized to explore the broader theoretical purchase such philosophical notions have for analyzing punk and other cultural spaces.

A reflection on the late Marianne Faithfull: What does it mean to simply keep living, making, and getting older? To do that the “right” way? What does it mean for a woman known for being exquisitely beautiful? A woman who was first only allowed one version of being but refused to be held in amber? A woman constantly called a muse while she was collaborating and making her own work? This essay appeared at Aquarium Drunkard (aquariumdrunkard.com).

The idea for this prose poem came through a brief encounter with the writing of Rosmarie Waldrop, a poet born in
Germany in 1935. She wrote, among many other books, one titled: Curves to the Apple1
, in which I found a long poem:
“Lawn of Excluded Middle.” Language and philosophy, interests we share, I discovered, and my relationship with a
life-long friend, Joe Brenner, a chemist cum philosopher, sparked a continued interest in logic especially the logic of “the
included middle,” a process he introduced in his important book: “Logic in Reality.2
.”

Rob Ruckus is a veteran of the Las Vegas punk scene and has played in punk bands and been involved in various punk projects across the past four decades. Since the Punk Rock Museum opened in Las Vegas in April 2023, Rob has managed its Jam Room. The Jam Room features a range of instruments donated to the museum by various punk bands. The instruments are all available to be played by visitors to the museum, and Rob is as enthusiastic about encouraging people to play the instruments as he is talking about the museum or his experiences in punk. Rob spoke with Paul Fields in July 2023.

This article represents a work in progress, based on a paper I delivered at the Punk Scholars Network USA/Canada Conference at DePaul University, Chicago on 8 August 2023. In a broad sense my research looks at various topics in punk (sub)culture, some of which relate to issues to do with social policy within punk and how these are constructed and applied. Part of this considers the nature of ‘rules’ within punk, who creates them, and how their boundaries are determined, observed, and—if transgressed—reacted to. Given this, and how punk can play such an important and all-encompassing role in some people’s lives, an emerging strand of this research involves whether and to what extent we can see elements of religious or quasi-religious practices within punk. In this article I will speculate on some initial ideas related to this topic. First, I will consider reflections on punk and religion in social media. Second, I will look at ways other concepts have been considered in terms of how they may exhibit religious qualities. Third, I will select a small number of standout moments from the history of punk that appear to have religious-like qualities. Finally, I will use the work of sociologist Gordon Lynch (2005) to speculate on how this research may progress. As this research project is at an emergent stage, I will fleetingly consider bands and individuals from various eras of punk, although mostly from the United States in the 1980s and 1990s. Evidently, then, neither the examples of the features of punk nor the features of religion are anywhere near exhaustive. At a more advanced stage I expect the research to consider a more comprehensive sample of punk while focusing the project both theoretically and methodologically.

Algunos discursos políticos han asociado los movimientos nacionalistas subestatales de largo recorrido con representaciones esencialistas del pasado y con prácticas políticas inamovibles en el transcurso del tiempo. Frente a esta visión, este texto explora las conexiones entre estos movimientos nacionalistas subestatales, en su versión de izquierda, y las políticas prefigurativas tardomodernas, centrándose en el caso del activismo juvenil. El texto se basa en el estudio de caso sobre la politización juvenil en el País Vasco, realizado mediante una aproximación metodológica cualitativa a través de entrevistas en profundidad, a jóvenes activistas de ámbitos muy diversos: organizaciones políticas más clásicas, movimientos sociales, iniciativas juveniles más innovadoras, etc. Se han analizado las reformulaciones y ajustes discursivos realizados por las personas jóvenes activistas cercanas al nacionalismo vasco de izquierda, a partir de los sentidos atribuidos por estos jóvenes a su actividad política. Entre otras cuestiones, el análisis revela que, por un lado, el movimiento nacionalista de izquierda provee de condiciones sociales y políticas necesarias para el desarrollo de políticas prefigurativas novedosas, distintas de las tradicionales políticas de construcción étnico-nacional. Por otro lado, también muestra que, debido a su carácter contencioso previo, el ideario nacionalista es receptivo a los diferentes sistemas de opresión que actúan globalmente y se ve influido por las agendas de conflictos propios de la modernidad tardía, de modo que las generaciones más jóvenes trasladan al ámbito local discursos y prácticas globales y los hacen suyos.

This article proposes a nuanced examination of female identities within the framework of postmodern feminist literature and punk's cultural rebellion, critically engaging with the legacy of Kathy Acker and the punk literary movement. My research transcends traditional analysis and explores the construct of female identities through the lens of postmodern feminist resistance, where Acker's deconstruction of narrative forms and punk literature's radical ethos serve as focal points. The study aligns with Acker's thematic preoccupations with power, autonomy, and societal transgression, drawing parallels with contemporary feminist concerns. This interdisciplinary approach, combining comparative literature analysis, feminist theoretical perspectives, and examining power dynamics in fiction, seeks to articulate how postmodern narratives, particularly within the punk genre, redefine and challenge conventional gender roles. It aims to focus on discourse on gender and cultural studies by offering insights into the complex interplay between historical narrative constructs and their reimagining in postmodern feminist and punk literature, highlighting the evolution of female identities in a continuously shifting socio-political landscape.

Esta tese trata do que denominamos cultura política autonomista, aqui identificada enquanto parte da tradição socialista, particularmente a que se refere às correntes antiautoritárias, como os anarquismos, a tradição marxiana e os marxismos heterodoxos — com destaque para a primeira. Tensionada entre uma historiografia que prioriza ora as culturas políticas e experiências históricas relacionadas à tradição marxista-leninista ortodoxa, ora as relativas à socialdemocracia, a cultura política autonomista, correntemente, tende a ser preterida ou mesmo negada em sua existência. A partir de uma abordagem calcada nas perspectivas da Nova História Política, esta tese elenca três elementos fundamentais do imaginário e das representações do universo político autonomista: o princípio político do comum, a antifragmentação e a prefiguração. A partir desses referenciais, traça-se uma trajetória de longa duração, atravessando a constituição dessa cultura política, suas atualizações e submersões, bem como seu retorno ao centro da cena política a partir da Revolução do Maio de 1968. Passando, em seguida, pelo anarcopunk, pelo movimento antiglobalização da segunda metade da década de 1990 e desaguando no ciclo de protestos dos anos 2010, verificamos as formas pelas quais o autonomismo tem se expressado e se adequado às conjunturas contemporâneas, com destaque para o Brasil. A tese tem como base empírica dois textos clássicos de Proudhon, além de fanzines e referências do imaginário anarquista, bem como depoimentos de militantes e ex-militantes que atuaram no movimento antiglobalização no Brasil e/ou no ciclo de protestos de Junho de 2013, além, é claro, de dialogar com a bibliografia pertinente.

In this interview with Los Angeles performance artist Johanna Went, the artist talks with art historian Maria Elena Buszek about her path towards both performance art and the punk scene in the 1970s. They discuss the genesis of Went's often gruesome, largely improvisational performances and lovingly crafted, sculptural costumes that were exhibited in the 2020 exhibition Passion Container at LA gallery The Box, feminist politics and what Went calls the 'bloodlines' of the LA punk scene.

Pergaulan bebas di kalangan remaja dapat menimbulkan dampak signifikan terhadap perkembangan kognitif mereka, yang berpotensi menyebabkan kerusakan pada pola pikir. Perspektif psikologi kognitif menyoroti bagaimana keterlibatan dalam perilaku berisiko yang seringkali terkait dengan pergaulan bebas dapat memicu atau memperkuat distorsi kognitif, membentuk keyakinan yang tidak adaptif, mengganggu proses pengambilan keputusan yang rasional, dan mempengaruhi regulasi emosi serta kognisi sosial. Kerusakan pola pikir ini dapat bermanifestasi dalam bentuk minimalisasi risiko, generalisasi berlebihan, pemikiran dikotomis, personalisasi, pembacaan pikiran, serta pembentukan keyakinan negatif tentang diri sendiri, orang lain, dan dunia. Lebih lanjut, dominasi pemikiran emosional, penurunan pertimbangan konsekuensi, dan fokus pada penghargaan segera dapat merusak proses pengambilan keputusan. Perilaku berisiko juga dapat menjadi mekanisme koping maladaptif, mengganggu regulasi emosi dan kemampuan membangun hubungan yang sehat. Dampak jangka panjang dari kerusakan pola pikir ini dapat merugikan kesehatan mental, hubungan interpersonal, dan pencapaian tujuan hidup remaja. Pemahaman mendalam tentang mekanisme kognitif yang terlibat dalam kerusakan pola pikir akibat pergaulan bebas menjadi krusial untuk mengembangkan intervensi pencegahan dan pemulihan yang efektif, yang berfokus pada identifikasi dan modifikasi pola pikir maladaptif serta peningkatan keterampilan kognitif yang adaptif. Kata Kunci: remaja, kerusakan pola pikir, pergaulan bebas

El 27 de septiembre de 1975, dos miembros de ETA político-militar, Ángel Otaegi Etxeberria
(Caraquemada) y Juan Paredes Manotas (Txiki), fueron fusilados tras ser condenados en sendos
consejos de guerra. El primero había sido cooperador necesario en el asesinato de un guardia civil
y el segundo había participado en acciones en las que perdieron la vida dos policías. Las protestas
contra su ejecución les convirtieron en símbolos para gran parte de los antifranquistas. En los
años siguientes, sin embargo, sus figuras fueron patrimonializadas por el entorno de ETA militar,
que utilizó herramientas propagandísticas como la celebración del Gudari Eguna para presentarlos como mártires de la patria a quienes autóctonos e inmigrantes debían imitar. Al igual que las
personas que habían asesinado, su historial terrorista fue cayendo en el olvido. En noviembre de
2012 el Gobierno Vasco reconoció a Paredes y Otaegi como víctimas de la violencia política. Ahora el nacionalismo vasco radical pretende que sean considerados «luchadores por la democracia».
En este trabajo se analiza su trayectoria como miembros de ETA, la cambiante memoria sobre su
caso y el difícil encaje en el relato histórico de victimarios-víctimas como ellos.

Vaya jodido mundo en el que vivimos, sentencia Juan Soto en esta nueva entrega de su 'Modus Vivendi' . Una época y ni cuenta nos dimos. El 'sistema' ha sabido asimilar el espíritu de que alguna vez contagió a la cultura, convertirlo en simulación y mercancía. El mejor ejemplo de está la música. El facturando millones haciéndose pasar por subversivo, pero hasta la estética del punk ya parece humor involuntario.

Unlike many other wardrobe classics, the camo jacket has undergone a makeover. It was first created for survival and functionality, but over time it evolved into a potent representation of style, identity, and defiance. The insertion of patches—personality symbols sewn onto a piece of military equipment—is one of its most notable developments. The evolution of the camouflage jacket with patches from battlefields to shops can be divided into four phases.

In the early 1990s', grunge music started to emerge into the mainstream. Grunge is a development from punk-rock and originated from an underground music scene in Seattle, where bands we know today, like Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden have their roots. The mosh pit was a part of this punk-rock scene and was not seen as 'popular' to the masses at the time. However, in 2020, mosh pits are common practice at music concerts and festivals. I have explored the degree of grunge's involvement with this drastic cultural change in attitude towards mosh pit and with that, test the degree of its effect. In this research project, you will find a combination of primary and secondary knowledge, considering both quantitative and qualitative data. I conducted a total of seven interviews and used their content to scrutinize and add to existing material on my topic. Principles of music psychology are the foundation of this paper. From the investigation, we deduced factors like ingroup favouritism, social cohesion and emergent behaviour are prime examples of these theories. With the support of quantitative data, we deduced a two-fold answer. We found that grunge music increased the intensity of the mosh pit overall, due to the sheer size differences in audiences but proportionally, the activity of the mosh pits of the underground scene was higher than at the mainstream concerts.

This study explores the Potaxie, Fifes, and Tilinx subcultures on TikTok, examining their origins, characteristics, and cultural significance. Originating from a viral video in 2020, the Potaxie subculture emerged within the Spanish-speaking LGBTQ+ community and evolved to symbolise inclusivity and gender equality. Potaxies use vibrant aesthetics influenced by Japanese and Korean pop culture to express their identities and resistance. In contrast, Fifes, associated with cisgender heterosexual men, embody traditional patriarchal values, often sexist and homophobic, creating a narrative of resistance between the groups. The Tilinx, symbolic descendants of the Potaxies, are inspired by ballroom culture and drag houses, with "Potaxie mothers" continuing the fight for inclusion and diversity. Using a mixed-methods approach, including quantitative analysis through the TikTok API and qualitative content analysis via MAXQDA and Python, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the subculture that accumulates over 2.3 billion interactions. The findings highlight how TikTok serves as a platform for identity construction, cultural resistance, and the redefinition of social norms. Additionally, the study examines how digital platforms mediate intersectional experiences, favouring certain types of content through algorithms, and how participants navigate these opportunities and constraints to express their intersecting identities. The implications for communication strategies, youth policies, educational plans, and research on the commercialization of these subcultures are profound, offering insights into the transformative potential of social media in shaping contemporary cultural and social narratives.

While there have been various books and shows on specific aspects of the 1980s underground, this exhibition is perhaps the first attempt at a cross-decade overview. It steps back from single genres or individual venues to survey the bigger picture and what really went on... Dismissed as a grey decade where money replaced self-expression, once the surface of the 1980s is scratched, what happened at underground level is revealed to be fascinating-a subversive and genuinely fertile period of youth culture.

This article investigates the nature of Sartre's bad faith by analyzing the concept's modal dimensions. It focuses, in particular, on the discussion of how frequent bad faith is in our everyday lives. On one side of the debate is the reading that bad faith is temporary, avoidable, and contingent. Sartre's wellknown examples of the woman and the waiter in the chapter "Bad Faith" in Being and Nothingness support this reading of bad faith as a state that we come in and out of, as something we can refrain from doing or succumb to and fall into. Bad faith is in this way interpreted to be a normative, ethical concept. However, on the other side of the contingency debate is the reading that bad faith is a constant in our lives. I borrow an argument from Schopenhauer to investigate how having bad faith about the ultimate goals of life presents us with the most prevalent variation of bad faith. This article offers a topography of this debate, thereby underscoring one of the main topics about the modality of bad faith, which has not yet been fully articulated in the literature on Sartre, but which is vital to understanding the concept.

Trata-se aqui de apresentar uma análise do sentido das canções “Desemprego”, da banda Fogo Cruzado, e “Subúrbio Operário”, da banda Garotos Podres, realizada no bojo de um projeto de pesquisa que pretende examinar as relações entre arte, ideologia, política e os impasses histórico-sociais das promessas de modernização no movimento punk paulista. Em perspectiva interdisciplinar e viés ensaístico, buscamos caracterizar nestas duas canções uma experiência marcada por frustração em relação à promessa nacional-desenvolvimentista de uma integração social pelo mercado de trabalho. Desse modo, foi possível levantar a hipótese de uma “estrutura de sentimento” do colapso da modernização, conforme o conceito de Raymond Williams e a crítica de Roberto Schwarz.

¿Cuál es el potencial político de mantener la esperanza? Este texto recorre la trayectoria política y filosófica de Guiomar Rovira, periodista, investigadora, ensayista y activista catalana. Desde las comunas anarquistas en los años 80 hasta las multitudes conectadas, pasando por el levantamiento zapatista de liberación nacional y el altermundismo, las autoras siguen el recorrido de Rovira quien, como pocas, ha entendido el agotamiento de los marcos tradicionales de estudio de los movimientos sociales. La propuesta de Rovira atiende a los momentos visibles y álgidos de la agitación pero también a los causes discretos, cotidianos y olvidados. Su filosofía política da pistas para comprender los modos en los que estas formas de organización dispersas pero conectadas, se apropian de las tecnologías de la información y de la comunicación, no para disputar el poder y los significados, sino para nacerse unos propios.

LA POESÍA PUNK DE GIOVANNI OQUENDO Dialéctica de lo íntimo y lo público contra el exotismo y la simplificación de la violencia Resumen En este artículo se analizan los elementos fundamentales de la obra del poeta punk Giovanni Oquendo (Medellín, 1969). Prácticamente desconocida en el campo literario, la obra de este escritor se mueve entre lo íntimo y lo político, entre lo simbólico y lo panfletario, para proponer una poética híbrida que logra cuestionar los lugares comunes con los que se ha entendido y narrado la identidad colombiana a partir de las manifestaciones culturales. Tomando influencia del punk anglosajón y de la poesía simbolista, la obra de Oquendo habla sobre la violencia urbana, el punk y la marginalidad desde una perspectiva compleja y dinámica que se posiciona en contra del exotismo, la tropicalización y el miserabilismo que han predominado históricamente en la producción cultural colombiana. Palabras clave Giovanni Oquendo, poesía punk, exotismo, marginalidad, literatura colombiana.

A seminar I taught on Black feminist and Womanist theory this past semester offered ample opportunity to practice what I had called in a talk last year, "teaching towards Calvin Warren's nonmetaphysical historiography." My intention was to disrupt: to break the pattern of participating in white historiography, rendering moot the practice of teaching anti-Black violence as ontology in the field of history. I was not prepared, however, for the seminar to become a meditation on love.

There is no primary source information as to the identity of the sitters seen in the very detailed and colourful painting titled "Autumn" by Frederick Sandys. It features an old sergeant in his military uniform with his apparent wife and child. Unfortunately no diaries or account books of the Pre-Raphaelite painter Frederick Sandys have come to light. However, with an exploration of circumstantial evidence relating to various details in the painting, it has been possible to build a very strong case for the identities of each of the three sitters or models.

A pesquisa aborda as formas de resistência do Punk/Hardcore a produção hegemônica do espaço em Belém do Pará. Nosso objetivo neste artigo é demonstrar as formas de resistências do Punk/Hardcore e a produção hegemônica do espaço. Para isso lançamos mão da dimensão espacial do vivido, presente na tríade espacial lefebvreana, para compreendermos essas formas de resistência adotadas pelo Punk/Hardcore. Para a construção dessa pesquisa realizamos levantamento bibliográfico, entrevistas semiestruturadas e analisamos os dados a partir de uma abordagem neomarxista. Com essa pesquisa reafirmamos a importância da dimensão do vivido (espaços de representação) para o desenvolvimento de formas de resistência a produção do espaço sob a lógica hegemônica do capital. Palavras-chave: Punk e Hardcore. Produção do Espaço. Espaço de Representação. ____________ 1 Este artigo foi elaborado a partir de minha dissertação para uma apresentação no seminário "Culturas múltiplas, políticas e desafios da resistência", em comemoração aos 45 anos do Núcleo de Altos Estudos Amazônicos (NAEA). 2 Formado em Geografia (UFPA), especialista em Planejamento e Gestão Pública do Patrimônio Cultural pelo NAEA (UFPA) e mestre em Planejamento do Desenvolvimento pelo NAEA (UFPA).

El artículo examina la novela La tumba de José Agustín como una representación de la contracultura juvenil de los años sesenta en México, destacando la “ausencia presente” del rock y la efervescencia contracultural en la narrativa. A través del personaje Gabriel Guía, José Agustín explora el impulso juvenil hacia un mundo alternativo al orden burgués-capitalista dominante, reflejando una crisis de identidad existencial que el protagonista intenta afrontar sin lograr incorporarse plenamente al “desmadre” contracultural. Enmarcada en la estructura del bildungsroman, la novela presenta un bildungsproceso fallido: Gabriel, joven enajenado por su entorno, oscila entre la rebeldía idealista del Werther de Goethe y el conformismo que ejemplifica Wilhelm Meister. El artículo señala que la contracultura funciona como un “agujero negro” que absorbe y estructura el trasfondo social y cultural de la novela, evidenciando una tensión irresuelta entre los valores ontológicos de plenitud vital y el vacío impuesto por el capitalismo en un México en vías de modernización.

Human ageing is per se not the end of the world, but it brings me inevitably closer to the end of my world. Older people are often said to live more in the past, while the future, sometimes dreaded, loses its importance (Wright & Lovatt, 2024). "A limited future, a frozen past: that's the situation of the old person," as Beauvoir famously stated. (....)

Mendengar kata "anarkisme‟, sepertinya sangat tidak relevan bila langsung mengkonotasikanya sebagai bentuk kekerasan dan ketidakberaturan. Karena faktanya anarkisme mempunyai esensi ideologi yang sangat mendalam. Anarkisme merupakan sebuah ide gerakan sosial yang menolak segala bentuk penindasan dan eksploitasi manusia terhadap manusia lainnya. Sejak kemunculanya pada abad-19, anarkisme kemudian menjelma menjadi sebuah gerakan perlawanan menentang negara sebagai representasi struktur hirarkis, dan kaptalisme yang dianggap sebagai sumber penindasan. Di Indonesia sendiri tidak diketahui secara pasti kapan ideologi ini mulai masuk. Namun diketahui anarkisme mulai menunjukkan eksistensinya pada era 90an yang dibarengi dengan masuknya sub-culture punk dan represifitas orde baru.
Studi ini mencoba mengungkap makna-makna yang terkandung dalam anarkisme. Untuk menganalisis fenomena ini peneliti menggunakan studi fenomenologi yang dipopulerkan oleh Alfred Schuts. Fenomenologi Schuts terinspirasi dari pandangan verstehen Weber tentang makna subjektif individu. Istilah fenomenologi berasal dari bahasa Yunani, phainomenon (menampakkan diri) dan logos (ilmu). Fenomenologi tidak hanya memberikan penjelasan terhadap sebuah fenomena, namun juga mengusulkan sebuah perangkat dalam memperlakukan kehidupan sosial.

This article explores the relation between left-wing sub-state nationalist movements and late modern prefigurative politics, a field of study little developed until now. The analysis is based on a case study on nationalist youth activism in the Basque Country, carried out by means of a qualitative methodological approach using in-depth interviews. The reformulations and adjustments of discourse in the post-ETA nationalist movement were addressed based on the meaning young people give to their political activity. The analysis reveals that the left-wing nationalist movement provides the social and political conditions necessary for developing new prefigurative politics, unlike the traditional politics of ethnic nation building. It likewise shows that, due to its previous contentious nature, nationalist ideology is sensitive to the different systems of oppression and is affected by the conflict agendas typical of late modernity, with the result that younger generations transfer global practices and discourses to the local level.
