Middle class counter-cultural angst am I.

Can you tell I'm working on the longer version of the blogging paper? :) The beauty of the quote is the way that it expresses the idea in such a poetic and approachable way. Hebdige is quite rare in that, I think: evidence that good theory doesn't need to read like Theory. Of course. Can you tell I’m working on the longer version of the blogging paper? :)

That's why the fish and chips are so noice in the quote. yeah, nice. actually the bit of ‘classic’ subculture theory I like the most is the bit that talks about (sub)cultural practices being both the representation and symbolic (but not ‘real’) resolutions of tensions between the structural position (and temporal orientation, e.g. possible imagined futures) of the subculture and those of the ‘parent’ culture.
