 THE PUNK READER.
THE PUNK READER. THE PUNK READER.
RESEARCH TRANSMISSIONS FROM
Forty years on, punk has traversed international boundaries and the legacy of the
events of 1977, with the original UK and US scenes now accompanied by a variety
of complex and important global counterparts. Most, if not all, cities on the planet
now have some variation of punk existing in their respective undergrounds, and
long-standing scenes can be found in China, Japan, India, Africa, South East Asia and
the Middle East.
THE LOCAL AND THE GLOBAL
Each scene, rather than adopting traditional interpretations of the punk filter, reflects
national, regional and local identities. The Punk Reader: Research Transmissions
From the Local and the Global is the first edited volume setting out to explore and
critically interrogate punk culture in relation to contemporary, radicalised globalisation.
With chapters documenting disparate international punk scenes, including Mexico,
China, Malaysia and Iran, The Punk Reader is a long overdue addition to punk studies,
and a valuable resource for readers seeking to know more about the global influence of
punk beyond the 1970s.
