Description

Surfing Life: Surface, Substructure and the Commodification of the Sublime provides a deep look into surfing and social change. Published by Routledge, this book explores how experience-based subcultures function within contemporary society. It offers a unique perspective on the nature of the self and social formations through the lens of surfing culture. Using extensive empirical material, the text presents new theoretical approaches to social change. It examines the connection between embodied experience, culture, and the economy. This work is built on a foundation of ethnographic study conducted in various locations across Australia, making it a valuable resource for understanding how culture and economic forces interact. This volume is designed for readers interested in anthropology, sociology, and the study of modern subcultures. It provides a detailed analysis of how specific lifestyles interact with broader social structures, offering insights that extend beyond surfing to other contemporary experience-based groups.
