Hooliganism: Crime, Culture, and Power in St. Petersburg, 1900-1914
In this pioneering analysis of diffuse underclass anger that simmers in many societies, Joan Neuberger takes us to the streets of St. Petersburg in 1900-1914 to show us how the phenomenon labeled hooliganism came to symbolize all that was wrong with the modern city: increasing hostility between classes, society's failure to “civilize” the poor, the desperation of the destitute, and the proliferation of violence in public spaces.
