The role of the teacher in the educational process has to be reconsidered within the process of social change. Social cohesion can be viewed as an integral part of sustainable development, based on an integrated, holistic approach to economic, societal and environmental development. The role of teachers needs to be reoriented toward the promotion of social cohesion in education, considering the different subcultures that are present. The empirical study described in this article was carried out in Lithuania as a stage within the VI Framework Project "Strategies for Inclusion and Social Cohesion in Europe from Education". A semi-structured interview designed by an international team was conducted with eight primary school teachers from a Kaunas region basic school. The data obtained through the interviews was subjected for content analysis. The paper concludes that the interviewed primary school teachers tend to act as representatives that enhance the subculture of sustainability.

The term football (soccer) hooliganism is an umbrella term for describing various types of violations of public order.These occur not only during football matches, but also before and after matches, and while traveling to and from games. The mostcommon forms of negative behavior of soccer fans include: collective fights between rival groups, throwing dangerous objects ontothe pitch, attacking police forces and damage to trains, city buses and trams. The article discusses the facts and myths concerningthe football (soccer) hooligan subculture in Poland and presents football hooligans — mostly young males — as a socially excludedgroup. The author bases his reflections on over 20 years observation of football hooligan groups in Poland and an analysis of pressreports concerning Polish football hooliganism. In contrast to the prevailing view in the literature, the author points to numerouspsychological benefits which result from the stigmatization and exclusion process. Marginalization does not necessarily involvea decrease in the quality of life as perceived subjectively by the individual or the group. The individual may be shielded fromthe perceived sense of the low quality of life that accompanies social exclusion. This occurs as a result of the creation of group bonds,following a comprehensive set of rules of conduct and adherence to the same values. The author emphasizes that it is importantto understand the perception of “football reality” from the hooligans’ perspective and not solely from that of wider society.

In the 1980s in Poland, many young people dreamed of having western clothes. They were considered the most fashionable, created/signified the social position and allowed teenagers to “feel cool”. On the basis of the ethnographic research, the paper presents the sources of inspiration for the clothing choices and the deeper meaning of fashion in those times. Thus, this text is not only a description of teenage clothing choices, but most of all, it is a story of resistance and cultural changes among teens which led to the collapse of socialistic culture. By referring to postcolonial theories, it is shown how international influences impacted everyday decisions and how they enabled the success of consumerism in Poland.

The paper deals with educational activities of the far-right skinhead subculture and the environmental freegan subculture in the public space, set into a frame of public pedagog y. On the basis of ethnographic research of the educational activities of subcultures, the paper describes basic categories of public pedagog y of subcultures, including aims, contents, methods, and target groups. The aims describe what the subcultures want to achieve through their educational activities and are based on the direction of the given subculture. The methods show which educational activities these subcultures use, both in the physical public space and in the media. The target groups reveal the multi-level division of the audiences that the subcultures affect. In the final part, the paper discusses the role of subcultures as unofficial educational agents in the contemporary educational reality.

Artykuł jest próbą poszukiwania odpowiedzi na pytanie o tożsamość młodzieży z subkultur kibicowskich. Analiza problemu sprowadza się do opisu subkultury kibiców piłkarskich jako grupy społecznej kształtującej parametry indywidualne i grupowe młodych ludzi. Grupa ta jest tylko pozornie jednorodna. Członkowie spędzają czas wolny na kibicowaniu ulubionej drużynie i uczestniczeniu w widowiskach sportowych. Co więcej organizują zbiórki charytatywne, propagują postawę patriotyczną, jak również odwołują się do neofaszystowskich haseł i symboliki, wykrzykują antysemickie przyśpiewki, mają rasistowskie poglądy czy dopuszczają się okaleczeń innych. Dalsza część tekstu to wskazanie zadań w kontekście wychowania i edukacji, obszarów działań, jak również dobrych praktyk, które mogą być fundamentem do budowy programów profilaktycznych i naprawczych nastawionych na kreowanie w opisywanym środowisku tożsamości twórczej, otwartej, rozumiejącej siebie i innych.

The article poses a question on the identity of the youth that associate with the subculture of football fans. The main subject relates to the description of football fans culture as a social group. The subculture of football fans appears very homogenous, which is misleading. On one hand members of the subculture spend their free time supporting their favorite team, participating in sport events, organizing moneyraising and promoting patriotic feelings. On the other hand, they are associated with the neo-fascist slogans and symbols, shouting anti-Semitic chants and committing acts of physical violence. The article identifies challenges for the education policy and practices that may be fundamental in creating prevention programs, aimed at the development of a new football fan identity, which would promote open, understanding and tolerant attitudes within this community.

Footwear terminology demonstrates interesting cross-linguistic differences and is, consequently, also a problematic area for non-native speakers. In order to arrive at a more accurate picture of a subset of footwear terminology in present-day Polish, 82 native speakers were asked to name a range of six contemporary women's boot styles. No style showed a complete agreement in the preferred head noun, although a clear trend was evident for each one, with kozaki being the most commonly used overall. The possibly uniquely Polish use of a military metaphor for tall riding-style boots (oficerki) and the special subcultural case of Dr. Martens-style boots are discussed in particular. The choice of modifiers within noun phrases for boots is also examined. Some contrastive data are presented from speakers of Greek and Russian.

The article is an introduction to the analysis of the titles of Polish underground and alternative press, i.e. zines produced by subcultures, artistic and political groups. At the beginning the author presents some definitions and a typology of zines: fanzines and artzines. Then, the history of Polish zines in nonofficial “tertiary” and “alternative” circulation and the history of zines in the world is discussed. The next part presents general facts about zines: the first scientific development of zines, anthologies, catalogues, dissertations, biographies. Before the presentation of the research, the author discusses onomastic methodology and troubles with it: many scholars treat an analysis of zine titles as an innovation. Then, the author shows results of the title analysis of the zines produced by anarchists, punks, ecologists, animal rights activists and vegetarians. These were divided into cathegories, based on the semantic dominants („ideology”, „tradition”, „anti-aesthetic”, „humour”). Their texts operate in similar discourses. The last part of the article is a conclusion. Other titles (artistic and polital groups, metal music fans and hooligans) are presented in the second part of the article.

The article focuses on self harming as maladaptive coping strategy in adolescents. The role of real and virtual environment of adolescents, which is important for this phenomenon, is emphasized. The research is of explorative character, data has been collected through half-structured online interviews with 9 adolescent girls aged 15 through 18, who write about self harming on their blogs (online diaries), and analysed using the grounded theory method. It has been found that both real and virtual environment can have a huge impact on the emergence of self harming behavior in adolescents, its character and experiencing. Both environments might act as a medium for spreading knowledge of self harming and even as a source of self harming itself. Although the self harming online community is being looked at as supportive, it did not bring an end to self harming behavior in the case of our respondents, unlike the real social environment. On the contrary, the risk of normalisation of this behavior by sharing information on blogs occurred. The real social environment is then an important helper in ending the self harming behavior. The intersection of real and virtual environment of adolescents might be the Emo and Gothic subcultures. The connection of subcultures and self harming is being widely discussed by media in these days. In our research we did not prove such a connection.

Článek se zabývá sebepoškozováním jako maladaptivní copingovou strategií v období adolescence. Důraz je kladen zejména na roli, kterou u tohoto fenoménu hraje reálné a virtuální prostředí, v němž se adolescenti pohybují. Výzkum je explorativního charakteru, data byla získána prostřednictvím polostrukturovaných online rozhovorů s 9 adolescentkami ve věku 15 – 18 let, které na svém blogu (online deníčku) píší o sebepoškozování, a analyzována s využitím metody zakotvené teorie. Bylo zjištěno, že reálné i virtuální prostředí může mít významný vliv na vznik sebepoškozujícího jednání u adolescentů, jeho charakter a prožívání. Obě dvě sféry mohou být prostředníky pro šíření povědomí o sebepoškozování, potažmo zdrojem šíření sebepoškozování samotného. Ačkoli je online prostředí dívkami vnímáno jako podpůrné, k ukončení sebepoškozování na rozdíl od reálného sociálního okolí patrně nepřispívá. Naopak se objevilo riziko normalizace sebepoškozování na základě sdílení informací na blozích. Skutečné sociální prostředí je pak důležitým pomocníkem při ukončení sebepoškozování. Průsečíkem reálného a virtuálního prostředí adolescentů pak mohou být subkultury mládeže (v tomto případě Emo a Gothic). Souvislost těchto subkultur a sebepoškozování je v současnosti poměrně hojně medializována. V našem výzkumu jsme přímou souvislost mezi sebepoškozováním a těmito subkulturami neprokázali.

The aim of this study is to critically analyze the role of printed fanzines in the post-digital era. Fanzines are non-commercial magazines which are mainly produced by subculture members. They used to bring fresh information to readers, but their role has changed. The main research question of this study is why Czech authors who are members of hardcore-punk subculture (who are currently the most active producers) still produce printed magazines when fresh information can be easily found on the internet. Fanzines in contrast with mainstream media are participatory media which turn consumers into producers – subculture has a non-hierarchical structure therefore it offers a bigger space for participation. I chose the method of qualitative in-depth interviews with 8 informers to learn more about subcultural mechanisms; a part of the informers were active in the pre-digital era and the second part of the informers were active in the post-digital era. This range of informers helped me to depict the change which came along with digital media.

Záměrem této studie je kriticky zhodnotit roli tištěných fanzinů v post-digitální době. Fanziny jsou nekomerční časopisy, které nejčastěji využívají příslušníci subkultur. Dříve sloužily jako informační rozcestník, jejich role se ale změnila. Hlavní výzkumnou otázkou této studie je, proč mají autoři z řad současných tuzemských členů hardcore-punkové subkultury, kteří jsou nejaktivnějšími tvůrci fanzinů, stále potřebu vyrábět tištěné časopisy, když se všechny informace dají najít na internetu. Na rozdíl od mainstreamových médií je zde výrazná míra participace konzumentů mediálních sdělení, z nichž se stávají producenti – subkultura má nehierarchickou strukturu, proto dává velký prostor k participaci. Abych nahlédl do subkulturních mechanismů, pro sběr dat jsem zvolil metodu kvalitativních hloubkových rozhovorů s 8 informátory – část z nich byla aktivní v před-digitální době a část v post-digitální době. Takový výběr mi umožnil lépe postihnout změnu, která přišla s digitálními médii.

This review article elucidates and systematises existing research and theories of the de/politicisation of youth music subcultures. It examines the political dimension within the interdisciplinary field of subcultural studies in two main steps. First, it identifies and discusses five key dimensions of researching politicisation: politicisation through style and how style is read and through repressive power, the politicisation of everyday life and internal dynamics, and politicisation in the direction of organised activity. Second, these dimensions are presented and compared in a summarising table from two main perspectives: according to the research focus and according to the dynamics of de/politicisation being observed. The article also briefly outlines several possible directions of future research on the politicisation of youth music subcultures.

This scholarly article investigates different levels of appropriation of new-age spirituality in three subcultural contexts. The research focuses on the period of changes from state socialism to liberal democracy in Czechoslovakia. The three subcultural contexts in question are those of black metal scene around Prague-based band Törr, “underground” dissident subcultural formations and a peculiar personality of Vincent Venera and his hardcore-experimental musical band Saint Vincent. Three different strategies of using new-age spirituality are examined with the help of hypothesis of (sub)cultural transfer.

Despite drawing on a large body of different paradigms, subcultural studies have been conceptualizing subcultures rather uniformly as a world in itself, a reaction to dominant society or a combination of both. In our paper, we argue for more encompassing theoretical view, we call the relational perspective. Inspired by symbolic interactionism and studies on identity and alterity, while building on concepts devised in post-subcultural studies, we claim that particular subcultures are delineated in respect to many different actors. These can be roughly classified into categories of mainstream, other subcultures and enactments of one’s own subculture. Grounded in empirical research of punk and emo subcultures and employing the concepts of in/authenticity (based on subcultural capital formed by subcultural style, ideology and practice), we will show the possibility of application of this perspective in studying contemporary subcultural formations both diachronically and synchronically.

Subkulturní studia čerpala během své historie z celé řady různých sociálněvědních paradigmat – od sociologické tradice chicagské školy přes perspektivu kulturálních studií birminghamské CCCS až po postmodernismus post-subkulturních studií. Ve svém příspěvku chceme na teoretické diskuze subkulturních studií navázat a navrhnout inovativní způsob nahlížení subkultur, který označujeme jako relační perspektivu. V inspiraci symbolickým interakcionismem (G. A. Fine, J. P. Williams), teoriemi identity a alterity (R. Brubaker, F. Cooper, T. H. Eriksen, G. C. Spivak) a vybranými koncepty post-subkulturních teorií argumentujeme, že každá subkultura se vymezuje ve vztahu k mnoha různým aktérům, či přesněji ve vztahu k sociálním reprezentacím těchto aktérů. Jako klíčové aktéry resp. reprezentace identifikujeme 1) mainstream jako sociální reprezentaci dominantní společnosti, 2) jiné subkultury, 3) zjednávání vlastní subkultury. Možnosti aplikace relační perspektivy naznačujeme na našich výzkumech punkové a emo subkultury, a to jak v diachronní, tak v synchronní perspektivě. Ukazujeme, že tato perspektiva nám umožňuje hlubší zaměření se koncept (ne)autentičnosti, založené na subkulturním kapitálu, který je utvářen na základě subkulturního stylu, ideologie a praxí, a může se tak stát zajímavou ve studiu současných subkulturních formací.
