Summary/Abstract: In this article, the author presents a review of research on the “alternative press” (including zines, fanzines and artzines) created in Poland in the 1980s and 1990s by people associated with youth subcultures, alternative artistic movements, and groups presenting extreme views on socio-political issues. According to the author, these solid theoretical foundations and the results of empirical research are sufficient to initiate interdisciplinary research that could be called “zinology”. Finally, the author presents an excerpt from his research on the statistical and geographical development of the studied press.
