More about the book

The book offers an anthropological insight into Germany's vibrant punk scene, exploring its role as a reflection of the broader societal changes in post-reunification Germany. It delves into themes of social segmentation, east-west tensions, and local politics, highlighting how punk in eastern Germany serves as a response to the marginalization of the working class. Punks establish a controversial "substitute society" that addresses their low status in mainstream culture, showcasing the movement's significance beyond mere music.
