About the event
No Future: Punk, Politics and British Youth Culture, 1976 – 1984 is a landmark history which explores the era that punk movement. Punk evolves as a fashion, a musical form, an attitude and an aesthetic. During a period of deep social fragmentation, violence, high unemployment and socio-economic change, punk rejuvenated and re-energised British youth culture, inserting marginal voices and political ideas into pop. This talk celebrates a new edition of No Future released to mark 50 years since the punk movement began.
