Description

In Punk and Revolution Shane Greene radically uproots punk from its iconic place in First World urban culture; Anglo popular music; and the Euro-American avant-garde; situating it instead as a crucial element in Perus culture of subversive militancy and political violence. Inspired by Joseacute; Carlos Mariaacute;teguis Seven Interpretive Essays on Peruvian Reality; Greene explores punks political aspirations and subcultural possibilities while complicating the dominant narratives of the war between the Shining Path and the Peruvian state. In these seven essays; Greene experiments with style and content; bends the ethnographic genre; and juxtaposes the textual and visual. He theorizes punk in Lima as a mode of aesthetic and material underproduction; rants at canonical cultural studies for its failure to acknowledge punks potential for generating revolutionary politics; and uncovers the intersections of gender; ethnicity; class; and authenticity in the Lima punk scene. Following the theoretical interventions of Debord; Benjamin; and Bakhtin; Greene fundamentally redefines how we might think about the creative contours of punk subculture and the politics of anarchist praxis.
