Heisei Era (1989–2019): Punk as a Cultural and Political Movement (jan 26, 1989 – apr 30, 2019)
Description:
The Heisei era was a time of economic instability, rising surveillance, and globalization, all of which fueled new expressions of punk rebellion in Japan. Unlike earlier punk movements that focused primarily on rejecting government control and social conformity, Heisei-era punk expanded into critiques of economic hardship, corporate power, and global political shifts.
