		The movement in art paralleled such developments as the Theory of Relativity in physics; the increasing integration of internal combustion and industrialization; and the rise of social sciences in public policy.
		The rise of cinema and "moving pictures" in the first decade of the twentieth century gave the modern movement an artform which was uniquely its own, and again, created a direct connection between the perceived need to extend the "progressive" tradition of the late nineteenth century, even if this conflicted with then established norms.
		This wave of the modern movement broke with the past in the first decade of the twentieth century, and tried to redefine various artforms in a radical manner.

	Rock and roll
		Countless British youths listened to and were influenced by the RandB and rock and roll pioneers and began forming their own bands to play the new music with an intensity and drive seldom found in white American acts outside of Elvis.
		Foremost among these was The Beatles, comprised of four youths from Liverpool who became the single most important and influential act in the history of rock and roll.
		Pretty soon everybody was smoking it, and it seemed to be all right.” The relationship of rock music to the hippie and counterculture movements, which espoused use of marijuana and other drugs, is complex and intertwined, and it is not always clear in which direction influence flowed.

	Uppers
		Mod began with a few cliques of teenage, predominately Jewish, men with family connections to the garment trade in London in 1958-59.
		The early Mods were obsessed with the perfection of their personal styles with their primary influence being the slim-cut Italian suits of the time.
		The new Mods, and their music, were celebrated by the British music press as the phenomenon that would replace Punk as the dominant force in music and youth culture.

	The problem of 'youth' for youth work
		Youth culture, likewise, is seen as lacking the profundity or longevity of the alternatives.
		Youth work was based upon an assumption that adults led young people through a period of ‘storm and stress’ and danger toward the stability of adulthood.
		Youth workers have historically often made the same mistake - pleading for special treatment for those they identify as their clients, while overlooking the more acute needs of others - as currently exemplified in the debate concerning the supposed benefits of having a Minister for Youth.

	Youth Subcultures
		Youth culture also exists as shown in their distinct (2) morality: there is a strong emphasis on liberation from all restraints and on a guiltless pursuit of pleasure.
		Youth is viewed as an active category - a sociocultural view of youth is introduced where youth are involved in the development of society through their creations.
		Youth workers should, through research and observation, seek to identify the various subculture groups within the community in which the youth group operates, to ensure that the group is able to help to meet the needs of the different groups.

		The people who dressed like this were the “Teddy Boys”, the original youth culture, and, first of all, they were just youths who dressed in a particular style, but youth culture isn’t only about the clothes you wear.
		Mods were very serious about their appearance and the appearance of their scooters.
		They knew that the style had to symbolise a point of view with clothes and movement, and that there had to be music and star performers to make it popular.

	Mods & Rockers - webBikeWorld
		I was fascinated by both movements in my youth, having learned all about them from my much hipper -- and older -- cousins, who seemed to be right at the forefront of everything that was cool in the '50's and '60's.
		After the media caught on to the movements and fanned the flames whilst looking for a good story, a fight between the groups broke out in the town of Clacton and was parlayed by the press into a class warfare byline.
		Both movements sort of faded away with the "flower power" evolution in the late '60's, and would probably be completely forgotten if it wasn't for the recent insatiable demand for retro by the Baby Boomers.

	BBC - h2g2 - Mods - 1960's Fun Lovin' Criminals
		Mods were usually city dwellers (it was, by this time, a national phenomenon, although rooted in London), whereas Rockers tended to be more rural.
		Mods held down well paid office jobs, whereas Rockers were manual workers.
		The Mods were the products of a culture of constant change, and it was therefore inevitable that the scene would devour itself.

	Science Fair Projects - The Who
		They became one of the most popular bands among the British Mods, a social movement of the early 60s who rejected the "greaser" music favored by the Rockers.
		Another early favorite, showing Townshend's way with words, was the 1966 single "Substitute", which included the line, "I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth." The 1967 hit single "Pictures Of Lily", a tribute to masturbation, was possibly one of the most accomplished of all European contributions to psychedelic music.
		Although the intended album was not released until reconstructed as a radio play for the BBC in 2000, the Who included many of the project's best songs in Who's Next (1971), which would become their most successful album.

	Youth Culture of the Sixties
		The youth of the day opted for a completely different existence to that of their parent’s generation, shocking them in the process.
		The youth of the sixties was a generation that demanded to be heard.
		Movements such as the SDS (Student Democratic Society) stood for equal rights for all, and regularly held protests against such things as the drafting of young men for Vietnam.

	Solar Youth Culture
		The mid to late sixties youth culture was the first tide of youth to reject on mass, old fashioned values and to view themselves instead as belonging to a new global community.
		As urban youth culture goes increasingly out of control, it becomes more tribal, vibrant and chaotic; less hierarchal, more holistic, and as the primitive re-emerges, it does so in a predictable fashion as already dictated by the personal, inner infant.
		As for the timing of the youth currents - at the moment ranging from 10 to 16+ years - they could be pre-set and rigid or susceptible to ongoing changes in the economy.

		Mods – an abbreviation of Modernists – were the epitome of the Sixties.
		The Mods were interested in one-upmanship; they had to have the latest change in style before any of their peer group.

	MARCH OF THE MODS
		As a cohesive youth movement, lacking the clearer focus and sometime moral muscle of punk, mod is already all but finished.
		Page grandly saw the mods as ‘suited subversives’ who, by going to work in their ‘glory boy’ three button mohair suits, were in fact sticking two fingers up at the unsuspecting boss.
		Of all the bands associated with mod, The Chords are remarkable for having gone out of their way to avoid being classed as ‘part of the movement’.

		By 1965 the real Mod movement was dying except in a few provincial towns and up North.
		Mod had had a vast effect on the bands, who'd actually copied the kids' way of dress rather than vice versa.
		In '63 they were fresh faced, optimistic youths; in '67 they were expanding their minds, young men in search of knowledge; by the end of the decade they were hardened, disillusioned old men.

		From being a scattering of ultra hip subterranean club dwellers, the Mod movement had quickly evolved to take on a definitive culture and structure of its own.
