Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The History of Skinheads by Nick Razer is a gripping, unflinching journey into one of the most misunderstood and polarizing youth movements of the modern era. From its working-class birth on the streets of 1960s London to its global metamorphosis through decades of music, fashion, politics, a…nd rebellion, this book traces the skinhead story in all its gritty complexity-stripped of myth, moral panic, and media distortion.Before the headlines and hysteria, there was style. There were sharp boots and Ben Sherman shirts, buzzing barbershop cuts, and a unity forged in the pubs, dancehalls, and terraces of postwar Britain. The original skinheads were sons and daughters of the industrial class-multiracial, defiant, and deeply influenced by the ska and reggae rhythms imported from Jamaica. They weren't born violent or hateful; they were born from rhythm, rebellion, and the search for belonging in a changing world.But culture, like history, is never static. The History of Skinheads explores how the movement splintered-how the same boots that once stomped to ska could later march for vastly different causes. Through the 1970s punk explosion, the rise of Oi! music, and the infiltration of far-right ideology in the 1980s, Nick Razer unpacks how politics and propaganda reshaped a youth identity into both a scapegoat and symbol.Drawing on archival research, interviews, and firsthand accounts, this book paints a vivid portrait of the people behind the shaved heads: the traditional 'Trojan Skinheads' who celebrated multicultural roots, the anti-racist SHARP (Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice) movement that fought back against extremism, and those who, tragically, succumbed to violence and hate. It's a story of music and mayhem, rebellion and redemption-of how style became stigma and how communities fought to reclaim what was theirs.Razer doesn't sensationalize-he contextualizes. With a journalist's precision and a historian's empathy, he examines how working-class pride, identity politics, and cultural appropriation collided in the late 20th century, creating a phenomenon that refuses to die. Whether you're a music historian, sociologist, or cultural observer, The History of Skinheads offers a balanced, thought-provoking exploration of how one movement could mean unity for some and division for others.This is not just a story about boots and braces-it's a chronicle of identity, music, class struggle, and the dangerous beauty of belonging.Powerful, provocative, and deeply researched, The History of Skinheads challenges everything you think you know about a subculture that never really disappeared-only evolved.
