Seller's Description:
Fine. No Jacket. 8vo. 235 pp. Illustrated paper-covered boards. Clean, square and tight throughout--in as new condition. A number of black and white photo illustrations included. In post-Wall Germany, violence--both real and imagined--is increasingly determining the formation of new cultural identities. The author focuses on the representation of violence in three youth subcultures often characterized by aggression as they enact a rivalry for supremacy on the new German "street." This interdisciplinary study identifies the motivations, decisions, and consequences of violent acts and the stories that convey them.
