AXEL SCHILDT & DETLEF SIEGFRIED (EDITORS) Between Marx and Coca-Cola: Youth Cultures in Changing European Societies, 1960-1980
Oxford, Berghahn Books. 2006. (ISBN: 1845450094) Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. No dust jacket as issued. In the 1960s and 1970s, Western Europe's "Golden Age" [Eric Hobsbawm], a new youth consciousness emerged, which gave this period its distinctive character. Offering rich and new material, this volume moves beyond the easy conflation of youth culture and "Americanization" and instead sets out to show, for the first time, how international developments fused with national traditions to produce specific youth cultures that became the leading trendsetters of emergent post-industrial Western societies. It presents a multi-faceted portrait of European youth cultures, colored by differences in gender, class, and education, and points out the tension between emerging consumerism and growing politicization, succinctly expressed by Jean-Luc Godard in his 1967 pairing of "Marx and Coca-Cola.". New/Picture Boards.
