Stanley Cohen's study of Mods and
Rockers in the 1960's was a foundational text both in terms of investigating the workings of subcultural groups and identifying the concept of a "moral panic" generated by the media, which lead to groups being vilified in the popular imagination, and inhibits rational debate about solutions to the social problems such groups represent. Cohen's classic study of "deviant" subcultures and the "moral panic" they generate is reissued with a new author's introduction commenting on the demonization of asylum seekers (refugees) and on the recent "name and shame" campaign against pedophiles..
