Series editors: Russ Bestley and Mike Dines
Produced in collaboration with the Punk Scholars Network, the Global Punk book series focuses on the historical development and contemporary presence of punk around the world, reflecting upon origins, aesthetics, identity, legacy, membership, and circulation. Critical approaches draw upon the interdisciplinary areas of (among others) cultural studies, art and design, sociology, musicology, and social sciences in order to develop a broad and inclusive picture of punk and punk-inspired subcultural developments around the globe. The Global Punk series, therefore, adopts an essentially analytical perspective, raising questions about the dissemination of punk scenes and subcultures and their form, structure, and contemporary cultural significance in the daily lives of an increasing number of people around the world.

- Global impact and inclusion
