Description

Explore the transformation of British youth culture in the decades following World War II through this comprehensive social history. This book traces how newly-opened coffee bars, beat clubs, and discos fundamentally reshaped town and city centres after dark, creating vibrant spaces of leisure and recreation that were often mysterious to adults. By examining youth sociability from the ground up through the towns and cities young people inhabited, the author reveals how these emerging venues revolutionised young people's relationship with urban spaces and leisure culture during post-war Britain. Published by Manchester University Press, this work belongs to the Studies in Popular Culture series and offers essential insights into how commercial leisure spaces became crucial to the social identity and experiences of British youth during this pivotal era.
