THE DIFFUSION OF THE PUNK CULTURE AS DIFFUSION OF THE ANARCHY IDEA

Abstract

Snaky paths leaded the punk culture to anarchism, forming in the antrum of this culture the dissidence anarcho - punk – MAP. Such movement, better consolidated in some Brazilian cities, specially in those where the presence of collectives and the anarchist tradition is more expressive, could not save the punk politic culture from the power of cultural industry, which continues an important channel of diffusion of this culture to several urban contexts. The text brings the argument that, maybe, there’s a potentiality to the diffusion of the anarchy idea. After trying to build a consistent path of approach between the punk culture and the anarchist ideology, in the world and in Brazil, the text turns back to two particular contexts, where the author anchored his researches, the cities of Londrina and Guarapuava, in the state of Paraná. In those researches, he looks forward to tracing a located path of the punk culture, also to present the particular forms as how the idea of anarchy was dealt with, lived and produced internal dissent in each scene.
