Would Maffasoli and Hebdige agree?

After adressing some key questions towards both Maffesoli and Hebdige, we drew up the conclusion that both agree on the fact that recent times has seen the fragmentation of cultures into various subcultures with a proliferation of subcultures taking place also. Both also agree and adapt theory's based around the post-modern concept of identity.

On the other hand, there is one important aspect of these theorys that both strongly disagree on. Maffesoli believes that the meaning behind each subculture has been lost during the fragmentation and bricolage. Hebdige on the other hand, believes that the meaning remains and each subculture and the aspects of them, remain a way of identifying who you are and who you are not.
