Vol.19,No.2(2014)

Abstract

The paper deals with educational activities of the far-right skinhead subculture and the environmental freegan subculture in the public space, set into a frame of public pedagogy. On the basis of ethnographic research of the educational activities of subcultures, the paper describes basic categories of public pedagogy of subcultures, including aims, contents, methods, and target groups. The aims describe what the subcultures want to achieve through their educational activities and are based on the direction of the given subculture. The methods show which educational activities these subcultures use, both in the physical public space and in the media. The target groups reveal the multi-level division of the audiences that the subcultures affect. In the final part, the paper discusses the role of subcultures as unofficial educational agents in the contemporary educational reality.
