Abstract
In this elaboration of the formation of subcultural worlds, the author distinguishes three levels of the societal: 1. the societal in the broader sense of the world, 2. as a context in which our group memberships occur and 3. our individual unrepeatable re-making of social experience. Society’s second nature is the region of the societal which opposes our will-power and which represents the context of our graup and individual activities. Society’s second nature, as a given condition, can be only repressed, but never removed. Along with the criticism of totalitarian rule, its precondition being the suppression of society’s second nature, the author has presented a few of the basic pairs of distinctions in orientations representing the barrier between those who belong to the subcultural and those belonging to the dominant world.
