OverviewGorbachov's ""openness"" policy has revealed many hitherto unknown aspects of Soviet youth behaviour, including vigilante gangs and drug addicts, skin-heads (known as ""British horrors"") and heavy metal fans. Jim Riordan looks at the contemporary problems confronting young people in the USSR, covering youth culture and pop music, delinquents and deviants and young artists and youth organizations (official and unofficial). The book provides an insight into the life and attitudes of Soviet young men and women, providing an opportunity to understand the youth problems of another society and the ways they are dealt with. Jim Riordan is also author of ""Sport in Soviet Society"", ""Soviet Union: Land and People"" and ""Soviet Education: The Gifted and the Handicapped"".
