Richard "Dick" Hebdige (born 1951) is an expatriate British media theorist and sociologist most commonly associated with the study of subcultures, and its resistance against the mainstream of society. ==Life and career== Hebdige received his M.A. from the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies in Birmingham, United Kingdom. He is best known for his influential book in subcultural studies, ''Subculture: The Meaning of Style'', originally published in 1979. He has been teaching in art schools since the mid-1970s. Having served as the Dean of Critical Studies and the Director of the experimental writing program at the California Institute of the Arts before going to the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he is currently a professor of film and media studies and art. Hebdige's 1979 book ''Subculture: The Meaning of Style'' builds on earlier work at Birmingham on youth subcultures. But whereas much of this research was concerned with the relation between subcultures and social class in postwar Britain, Hebdige saw youth cultures in terms of a dialogue between Black and white youth. He argues that punk emerged as a mainly white style when Black youth became more separatist in the 1970s in response to discrimination in British society. Whereas previous research described a homology between the different aspects of a subcultural style (dress, hairstyle, music, drugs), Hebdige argues that punk in London in 1976-77 borrowed from all previous subcultures and its only homology was chaos. In making this argument he was drawing on the early work of Julia Kristeva who also found such subversion of meaning in French poets such as Mallarmé and Lautréamont. Hebdidge also wrote ''Cut 'n' Mix: Culture, Identity and Caribbean Music'' (1987) on Caribbean music and identity, and ''Hiding in the Light: On Images and Things'' (1988) a book of essays that includes some further thoughts about punk. In 2008 he contributed a chapter to ''Sound Unbound: Sampling Digital Music and Culture'' edited by Paul D. Miller a.k.a. DJ Spooky.〔Miller, Paul D. (ed).
