Etymology

The term 'subculture' combines the prefix 'sub-', meaning below or beneath, with 'culture,' originating from the Latin word 'cultura,' meaning cultivation or fostering. The concept became prominent in the study of sociology and anthropology in the mid-20th century. It was particularly associated with youth movements and countercultures, which emerged as a reaction to mainstream societal norms. The study of subcultures has played a significant role in understanding sociocultural dynamics, including how groups create identity, community, and resistance within a broader societal context. The evolution of subcultured expressions continues to reflect changes in technology, social values, and cultural exchanges in a globalized world.
