A rare ethnographic insight into Eastern German punk and skinhead scenes: The book offers a uniquely in-depth anthropological study of punk and skinhead communities in eastern Germany, based on fieldwork and close observation of everyday life in the subculture. It is one of a very small handful of ethnographic studies of contemporary German punk subcultures that exists, and offers unmatched insider knowledge. Offers a holistic portrait of subcultural life, beyond stereotypes: Rather than focusing only on music or fashion, as many books on the subculture have previously, the book explores the roles of work and unemployment, housing situations, family life, and gender roles. It offers a holistic view of the subculture, revealing rich insights that go well beyond existing stereotypical portraits of punks and skins. Interdisciplinary breadth and relevance: The book speaks to several fields, including cultural anthropology, European studies, post-socialist studies and more, giving it broad appeal with a wide variety of audiences and interest groups.
