"This article provides a critical overview of the contribution of British Cultural Studies to research on contemporary youth cultures, and some indications of how it should develop in the future. While the early work in this tradition has sometimes been unfairly attacked by subsequent researchers, the approach is in need of some careful reappraisal in the light of recent cultural change. The article argues that the category of 'youth' itself has become increasingly fluid and flexible; that the relations between the global and the local dimensions of youth culture have become more complex and dynamic; and that media - not least digital media - have become increasingly central to youth cultural practices. The article refers to examples of research that address these three areas, and concludes by calling for a more reflexive approach to research methods in the field." (author's abstract)... view less

"Der Artikel analysiert in einem kritischen Überblick den Beitrag der englischen Cultural Studies für die aktuelle Jugendkulturforschung und zeigt Perspektiven für ihre Weiterentwicklung auf. Während die frühen Arbeiten in dieser Forschungstradition teilweise zu Unrecht kritisiert wurden, muss der Ansatz heute angesichts des jüngsten kulturellen Wandels einer sorgfältigen Überprüfung und Neujustierung unterzogen werden. Der Beitrag stellt dar, dass der Begriff 'Jugend' heute zunehmend unscharf geworden ist, während gleichzeitig die Beziehungen zwischen globalen und lokalen Dimensionen von Jugendkultur komplexer und dynamischer geworden sind und insbesondere die digitalen Medien für jugendkulturelle Praktiken eine zentrale Rolle spielen. Diese Entwicklungen werden anhand ausgewählter Studien dargestellt, wobei der Beitrag abschließend einen stärker reflexiven Umgang mit Forschungsmethoden in der Jugendkulturforschung anmahnt."
