This paper has an eminently theoretical nature and proposes a brief conceptual itinerary about how, since the post-war, the social sciences in general and sociology in particular, have considered the contemporary youth (sub)cultures. It recovers some of the essential foundations of the discipline associated with the Chicago School; then it discusses the invaluable contribution of the cultural studies but also the main criticisms that were pointed out to the CCCS’s researchers; and, fi nally, it explores some of the recent theoretical contributions associated with the so-called post-subcultural studies, refl ecting and considering the main limits, dilemmas and challenges that are currently faced by researchers who propose to study contemporary youth cultures and sociabilities.
Este artigo, de cariz eminentemente teórico, propõe um breve itinerário conceptual acerca do modo como, desde o pós-guerra, as ciências sociais em geral e a sociologia em particular, têm vindo a equacionar as (sub)culturas juvenis contemporâneas. Recuperam-se alguns dos fundamentos basilares da disciplina, associados à Escola de Chicago; discute-se, de seguida, o contributo inestimáveldos cultural studies, bem como algumas as principais críticas que foram apontadas aos investigadores do CCCS; e, finalmente, exploram-se alguns dos recentes contributos teóricos associados aos chamados estudos pós-subculturais,refl etindo e considerando os principais limites, dilemas e desafios que hoje se colocam aos investigadores que se propõem a estudar
