You can say that a subculture is a culture within a culture. Today, there are many different subcultures, and it seems that most individuals are somehow involved in a subculture. andreasspringborg https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420463771 1. Identity
The members of the subculture have a sense of affiliation by e.g. wearing the same symbols or style of clothing, listening to the same kind of music, etc.

2. Commitment
Members must show involvement in the subculture; this commitment influences the pattern of everyday life, e.g. how you spend your free time, how you interact with other people, where you go shopping, etc.

3. Distinctiveness
Members share a set of tastes and values that is unique and different from mainstream culture.

4. Autonomy
The members are independent and self-governing and do not rely on mainstream culture to produce what is needed for the group to function and flourish.]]> 2022-12-14 12:16:10 UTC https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420463771 What characterises this particular subculture? andreasspringborg https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420465359 Post or write here:]]> 2022-12-14 12:17:47 UTC https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420465359 What characterises this particular subculture? andreasspringborg https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420466187 Post or write here]]> 2022-12-14 12:18:38 UTC https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420466187 Sum up the main points of the definition of subculture. andreasspringborg https://padlet.com/andreasspringborg/61qgey6l1jz04zp9/wish/2420469236 Discussion
