Subcultural challenges and challenging subculture : on interpretation and meaningmaking outside of the West/Global North
J. Patrick Williams
Documento (.pdf)
AbstractWhile debates within Western/Northern academic circles over the value of the subculture concept are relatively salient, there continues to be a relative lack of international voices on the role that ‘subculture’ may play in conceptualizing the everyday lives and realities of various cultural phenomena around the world. This paper introduces a themed session that brings together a set of papers that identifies and challenges existing biases in subcultural theories from positions outside the West/Global North. It first discusses the variety of ways in which contemporary scholarship utilizes the subculture concepts. It then raises the challenge of using a Western/Northern concept for research on what are clearly global, or at least non-Western, topics. Finally, it briefly introduces the work of the other three panelists, situating them within an interpretivist framework. The subsequent papers in this KISMIF session then raise discussions based on their own research on underground music scenes in Portugal, Korea, and China.
