Abstract     In this sequel of his considerations of subcultures, the author attempts to place them within a wider concept of culture. He cites, briefly, the historical survey of the origin and development of the more contemporary struggle with cultural variety. In particular, he considers the notion of cultural segmentation as related to the conflict and contrast between the so-called "elite" and "popular" culture. In this framework, the author endeavours, by citing the views of other theorists, to show the complexity and controversy of such dualist distinctions, as well as the difficulties of defining the phenomenon of subculture or popular culture as such. In conclusion, he introduces rock and roll as the starting point for the next sequel.
