Krátky popis
Are we confronting a new culture—global, online, individualistic?
Or is our existing concept of culture in crisis, as explicit,
normative systems replace implicit, social values?Olivier Roy’s new
book explains today’s fractures via the extension of individual
political and sexual freedoms from the 1960s. For Roy,
twentieth-century youth culture disconnected traditional political
protest from class, region or ethnicity, fashioning an identity
premised on repudiation rather than inheritance of shared history
or values. Having spread across generations under neoliberalism and
the internet, youth culture is now individualised, ersatz.Without a
shared culture, everything becomes an explicit code of how to speak
and act, often online. Identities are now defined by socially
fragmenting personal traits, creating affinity-based sub-cultures
seeking safe spaces: universities for the left, gated communities
and hard borders for the right. Increased left- and right-wing
references to ‘identity’ fail to confront this deeper crisis of
culture and community.Our only option, Roy argues, is to restore
social bonds at the grassroots or citizenship level.
