The scholar Dick Hebidge of the Birmingham University Center for Contemporary Cultural Studies , at 1988 in an important youth subculture article “Hiding in the light: youth surveillance and display” characterized youth subcultures as “youth-as-trouble” and “youth-as-fun”. Russian youth subculture demonstrates the image that Hebdige defined. The Soviet Union under the globalization tide, the capitalist economic system is swept across Russia, which made some of the Russian young people regard consuming as the most important thing in life (image “youth-as-fun”) ; and after the Soviet Union disintegrates, Russia's society rapid changes, Russian youth under the unstable political and economic situation, they resist major culture in order to seek the meaning of self-identity. This paper focuses on the “youth-as-trouble” aspect in Russia, and social problems caused in such an aspect, especially tobacco, alcohol, drugs, and skinhead. And analyze the characteristic of Russian youth cultural groups (Байкеры, Хиппи, Металлисты, Панки, Рэперы, Роллеры, Скинхэды, Футбольные болельщики), and their commonly used slang. |
