MIXED MESSAGES - CHRISTOPHER TINKER KARTONIERT ...

While popular music and the mass media in France are firmly established areas of enquiry  there
have been relatively few academic studies of the youth and popular music press. This book
focuses on Salut les copains (Hi Buddies Mates) (1962-76)  which achieved a circulation of a
million copies within its first year  at its peak sold around twice as many magazines as its
nearest competitors  and has now become synonymous with the development of youth culture in
1960s France. In the few existing accounts of Salut les copains cultural commentators have
tended to view the magazine as a neutral  apolitical vehicle for French yé-yé pop stars.
However  this full-length study reveals how written texts in Salut les copains (editorial 
letters and advertising) both supported and challenged dominant ideologies concerning culture 
the nation  youth and gender during the turbulent 1960s and 1970s.
