Слайд 5Subcultures
Now I would like to tell you about other youth
movement – subcultures. A subculture is a group of people
within a culture that differentiates itself from the parent culture to which it belongs, often maintaining some of its founding principles.

Слайд 6The Hippies
A hippie is a member of the counterculture of the 1960s, originally
a youth movement that began in the United States during the mid-1960s
and spread to other countries around the world. Hippies despise established concepts, criticize the values of the middle class and act as a radical opposition to the use of nuclear weapons. The musical culture of hippies was a mixture of rock, folk, blues and psychedelic rock. It is possible now to meet representatives of this subculture in Russia.
Слайд 7The Goths
The goth subculture is a subculture that began in England during the early 1980s, where

The music preferred by the goth subculture includes a number of different styles, e.g. gothic rock, death rock, post-punk, cold wave, dark wave, and ethereal wave.

Слайд 8Punks
The punk subculture includes a diverse array of ideologies, fashion, and other forms of
expression, visual art, dance, literature and film. It is largely characterised by anti-establishment
views and the promotion of individual freedom, and is centred on a loud, aggressive genre of rock music called punk rock. Punk politics cover the entire political spectrum. Common punk ethos includes non-conformity, anti-authoritarianism, anti-corporatism, a do-it-yourself ethic, anti-consumerist, anti-conservative, anti-corporate greed, direct action and not "selling out".
Слайд 9The main characteristic of the punk subculture is reduced to
the protest. First and foremost, this protest was cultural: the
punks were opposed to Commerce on the stage, sought to hooliganism and drive. In the second place, it was is a social protest. Punks ignore the standard rules of aesthetics, ethics, morals. Punks don't take the mass. They protest against mass culture, production, overproduction. They show dissatisfaction and clothing – they are distinguished by a colorful and unique hairstyles, ragged clothes, lots of chains. The main value from the point of view of punk – freedom. It can not be limited, and everyone can do as he sees fit. What punks do almost anything without limitation.
