Digital Youth Subcultures: Performing 'Transgressive' Identities in Digital Social Space
Teachers College Record
2023
Abstract
Digital Youth Subcultures is a collection of essays draws on ethnographic case studies across multiple geographic locations and contexts to investigate the ways in young people engage in transgressive activities in digital social spaces (DSS) including Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. The book underscores the pervasiveness and unprecedented extent to which young peoples’ lives and identities are constituted in and through social media spaces. The editors have assembled a group of leading international scholars to provide a rich body of evidence, largely from the point of view of young people themselves, to understand how subcultures arise online, how they are constructed and experienced, and why it matters to them.
