Conflicts, integration, hybridization of subcultures: An ecological approach to the case of queercore
This paper investigates the case study of queercore, providing a socio-historical analysis of its subcultural
production, in the terms of what Michel Foucault has called archaeology of knowledge (1969). In
particular, we will focus on: the self-definition of the movement; the conflicts between the two merged
worlds of punk and queer culture; the \u201cinternal-subcultural\u201d conflicts between both queercore and
punk, and between queercore and gay\lesbian music culture; the political aspects of differentiation.
In the conclusion, we will offer an innovative theoretical proposal about the interpretation of subcultures
in ecological and semiotic terms, combining the contribution of the American sociologist Andrew Abbot
and of the Russian semiologist Jurij Michajlovi\u10d Lotma
EU Privacy seals project: Comparison with other EU certification schemes
This report identifies and analyses key EU certification schemes in select sectors such as: network and information security, general product compliance, the environment, financial auditing and accounting, entertainment, the food industry and the telecommunications sectors and analyses them according to a standard set of criteria in relation to their background, development, practical set-up, legislative mandate (e.g., relevant directives, rules, links to legal obligations), main concerns and challenges. This identification and analysis will clarify the key principles on which such EU certification schemes are awarded and operate, and will help us draw lessons for an EU-wide privacy certification scheme.JRC.G.6-Digital Citizen Securit
