Flower Power and Rock 'n' Roll - The era of the hippies (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject English - Applied Geography, grade: 1,3, Technical University of Braunschweig, language: English, abstract: 1. Introduction The following term paper is dealing with the era of the hippies, their ideals, their music and the question what makes a person a hippie. Therefore, the social and political background is described to show how the movement could develop. Moreover, the highlight of the era - the Woodstock Festival - is illustrated as a representative for all the other festival during these years. Furthermore, I am trying to find access to the subject if the hippies were just another kind of youth culture that died with their icons or if it was more. Is it possible that the core of the hippie philosophy, based on its social background and peculiarities, is still alive somehow?
