Steve Chapman looks at the hippy subculture of the 1960s and 1970s and shows how it differed from other youth subcultures of the time. He examines different aspects of the hippy subculture and discusses the reasons for its decline. He also shows how it has influenced more recent ideologies such as environmentalism, anti-globalisation and feminism and examines its links to the development of social media. At the end of his article, the author suggests ways in which this material could be used.
