Description

Maracatu Atomico is the first comprehensive academic examination of the mangue movement, a transformative pop culture phenomenon that has shaped Northeast Brazil over three decades. This scholarly work investigates how the mangue movement responds to poverty and social challenges by reviving local folk traditions whilst incorporating modern global pop influences and contemporary technology. The book combines historical narrative with ethnographic research, offering detailed analysis of folk and pop fusion music that defines the movement. It engages with current academic debates surrounding postmodernity and globalisation, providing readers with critical perspectives on how regional cultures adapt and thrive within global contexts. Part of the Current Research in Ethnomusicology series, this volume serves as an essential resource for musicologists, cultural scholars, and anyone interested in understanding Brazil's vibrant musical innovations and the intersection of tradition with contemporary artistic expression in the Northeast region.

Key Features

The book combines historical accounts with ethnographic fieldwork to document the mangue movement's cultural significance and artistic development.

Analysis of folk and pop fusion music demonstrates how traditional Brazilian musical forms integrate with global contemporary pop influences.

Routledge's Current Research in Ethnomusicology series designation establishes this as rigorous scholarly work within academic music studies.

Essential reading for ethnomusicologists, cultural researchers, and scholars studying the intersection of tradition and modernity in regional music movements.
