Youth Gangs and Black Suburbs
This study addresses a neglected topic in delinquency research: Youth gangs in suburban communities. Evidence is presented to refute blanket assertions about the absence of ganging activity outside of central cities.

Highly popular girls are shown to conform more closely than the less popular to the prevailing neighborhood norms in popular music. Musical tastes and preferences for particular songs and for particular disk jockeys are found to be anchored in relatively small groups of friends, suggesting that pe…
