Ritual in Subculture

About Me

I am somebody working on subculture - in an academic context. I am curious to get to know what subculture means, and how it works. That's why I work on Ritual.

To be curious means an attitude that makes you meet people - an attitude that makes friends and that gives knowledge. I work as a lecturer for Ritual Studies at the University of Nijmegen/ The Netherlands.

My Interests
