520 2  "Class Acts explores the development of lifestyle 
       marketing from the 1960s to the 1990s. During this time, 
       young men began manipulating their identities by taking on
       the mannerisms, culture, and fashion of the working class 
       and poor. These style choices had contradictory meanings. 
       At once they were acts of rebellion by middleclass young 
       men against their social stratum and its rules of 
       masculinity and also examples of the privilege that 
       allowed them to try on different identities for amusement 
       or as a rite of passage. Starting in the 1960s, 
       advertisers and marketers, looking for new ways to appeal 
       to young people, seized on the idea of identity as a 
       choice, creating the field of lifestyle marketing. Mary 
       Rizzo traces the development of the concept of lifestyle 
       marketing, showing how marketers disconnected class 
       identity from material reality, focusing instead on a 
       person's attitudes, opinions, and behaviors. The book 
       includes discussions of the rebel of the 1950s, the hippie
       of the 1960s, the white suburban hip-hop fan of the 1980s,
       and the poverty chic of the 1990s. Class Acts illuminates 
       how the concept of 'lifestyle, ' particularly as expressed
       through fashion, has disconnected social class from its 
       material reality and diffused social critique into the 
       opportunity to simply buy another identity. The book will 
       appeal to scholars and other readers who are interested in
       American cultural history, youth culture, fashion, and 
       style"--|cProvided by publisher. 
520 2  "This manuscript examines post-World War II style and 
       youth culture through the lens of what the author terms 
       'class acts'--when middle class youth play with their 
       class identity by appropriating the mannerisms, language, 
       and fashions of the working class and poor. Rizzo focuses 
       her analysis on young men, defined as being between their 
       mid-teens and early twenties. Such acts are deeply 
       complicated. At one and the same time, they are examples 
       of the privilege and power of the middle class to utilize 
       other cultures and classes for their own purposes and to 
       critique economic, social, and political structures. Rizzo
       places these class acts within the historical development 
       of marketing, which shares the same foundational belief 
       that identity is a matter of choice. By analyzing debates 
       within marketing theory, she traces the development of the
       concept of lifestyle, an idea which marketers and 
       advertisers seized on since the 1960s to assert that class
       (and other identities, like age) are individual consumer 
       choices, divorcing them from material conditions. Through 
       chapters that include discussions of the rebel of the 
       1950s, the hippie of the 1960s, and the white suburban hip
       hop fan of the 1980s and 1990s, Class Acts illuminates how
       the concept of 'lifestyle, ' particularly as expressed 
       through fashion, has worked to both express social class 
       and diffuse social criticism in post World War II America"
