Descrição
Resumo:This paper has an eminently theoretical nature and proposes a brief conceptual itinerary about how, since the post-war, the social sciences in general and sociology in particular, have considered the contemporary youth (sub)cultures. It recovers some of the essential foundations of the discipline associated with the Chicago School; then it discusses the invaluable contribution of the cultural studies but also the main criticisms that were pointed out to the CCCS’s researchers; and, fi nally, it explores some of the recent theoretical contributions associated with the so-called post-subcultural studies, refl ecting and considering the main limits, dilemmas and challenges that are currently faced by researchers who propose to study contemporary youth cultures and sociabilities.
