Resumo

This paper offers a snapshot of youth subcultures in Odorheiu Secuiesc. Two qualitative studies constitute the empirical basis of the article. In 2002 and 2006 members of various youth subcultures were interviewed and observed, as were a small number of individuals who organize activities that young people frequent in their free-time. The main questions addressed in this paper: how youth characterize their own group and other subcultures? What motivates a young person’s integration into a particular subculture? Over the past few years, what changes have subcultures in Odorheiu Secuiesc undergone?
