Description

This book examines the birth of punk in the UK and its transformation, within a short period of time, into post-punk. Deploying innovative concepts of â?~critical massâ?T, â?~social networksâ?T and â?~music worldsâ?T, and using sophisticated techniques of â?~social network analysisâ?T, it teases out the events and mechanisms involved in punkâ?Ts â?~micro-mobilisationâ?T, its diffusion across the UK and its transformation in certain city-based strongholds into a variety of interlocking post-punk forms. Nick Crossley offers a detailed review of prior work in this area, a rich exploration of new empirical data and a highly innovative and robust approach to the study of â?~music worldsâ?T. Written in an accessible style, this book is essential reading for anybody with an interest in either UK punk and post-punk or the impact of social networks on cultural life and the potential of social network analysis to explore this impact. -- .
