El movimiento (contra) cultural punk y la crítica al capitalismo industrial

Abstract

The present research, “The (counter) cultural Punk Movement and Critique of Industrial Capitalism”, is based on a solid theoretical framework and provides a comprehensive view of the relevant research background of the punk movement and its cultural impact. In this study, employing cultural and musical analysis methods allows for an in-depth exploration of the lyrical, narrative, and historical social contexts of the selected punk songs. These songs not only reflect punk themes but also critically and provocatively address issues related to marginalization and resistance to systems of oppression. The study reveals how punk became a powerful vehicle for denouncing social injustice. Through its lyrics and aesthetics, punk expressed the anger and resistance of those oppressed by the power structures and industrial capitalism. Additionally, it provides a platform to highlight marginalized realities, such as street children, and offers an opportunity to discuss the experiences of the most vulnerable. The findings emphasize punk's ability to question and challenge the status quo, providing a unique perspective on social and economic struggles. The study underscores the importance of punk as a form of (counter)culture that not only critiques the capitalist system but also offers potential for societal change by proposing alternatives and new ways of understanding reality. Through detailed and critical analysis, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of the punk movement and its impact on culture and society. These results not only enrich the understanding of punk as a significant artistic and social expression but also lay the groundwork for future research in this area. Finally, the study highlights the importance of punk in critical reflection on oppression and marginalization and its role as an agent of change in a world dominated by industrial capitalism
