"We can do little to escape the experience of the United States of America through many media: TV, pop music, youth culture, Hollywood, fast food. How do these traces and images affect us? Do we internalize them, want to be American? Do we (can we?) resist them? Is our desire for them a symptom of European pop culture's crisis? From black face minstrelsy, rap music and fiction to McDonald's, rock festivals and Star Trek, the cultural con ..."

"Literary Nonfiction. Music. Punk is one of the most fiercely debated post-war subcultures. Despite the attention surrounding the movement's origins, analyses of punk have been drawn predominantly from a now well-trodden historical narrative. This simplification of punk's histories erases its breadth and vibrancy, leaving out bands from Crass to the Subhumans who took the call for anarchy in the UK seriously. Disillusioned by the comme ..."

"First, it took place in front of the Brandenburg Gate, which had become a symbol
of German and European division during the Cold War. Thus, the parade became
associated with a monument identifiable to numerous German and international
tourists (Nye 2009a). As seen in Figure 31, the party's pop play with these
monuments is evident, for example, in the music video to an anthem with which
the parade remains strongly identified: Da Hoo ..."
