摘要
The article gives insights into the evolution of the dance club scene in the growing urban region of the Finnish capital of Helsinki in the 1990s. The development of two different club cultures - techno and house - is accounted for. Techno culture was to a large degree made meaningful through the social change towards a computerized information society. Its popularity grew rapidly, but this was followed by a steep decline. In comparison, house culture was legitimized through more subtle strategies and slowly built up its symbolic capital, excluding direct references to a social structural meaning-making. Both styles were eventually to become recognized beyond their young clubbing audiences, and were utilized in significations of other value systems. The study shows the interplay between the symbolics associated with the city's club venues and historical and social developments, and how actors in the field of club culture reposition themselves over time.
