a s s sThe process by which certain groups find themselves “on the edge” of society, both in the political and economic sense.
Marginal groups lack formal organisations to represent their political interests, and often resort to violence and rioting as a form of political action.
West Indian immigrants are an example of a marginalised group, as they lack clearly defined pressure groups to represent them. They feel a general sense of resentment and often take to the streets and riot.
The young are particularly vulnerable to marginalisation, as they lack “economic muscle” that other working class groups have (e.g. the ability to strike). Their outlets for influencing political decisions are limited to riots and protests. sSecond generation West Indian immigrants for example, advocated subcultural strategies such as street crime in the form of “hustling” for money, as well as joining Rastafarian and Pentecostal religious movements.
The subcultural model proposed by Lea & Young has a number of distinct features.
For example, they believe that subcultures develop as a response to the “problems” people face. These “problems” are not randomly, determined, but are a precise result of the social and economic structure.
Also, they propose that the values of a subculture are not divorced from mainstream values; they are distinct, but not separate. Subcultural values are enmeshed in mainstream ones, and it is precisely for this reason that relative deprivation occurs, as certain groups have “mainstream” expectations which cannot be fulfilled.
