Description

Popular Music and the Postcolonial explores the significant intersection between popular music studies and postcolonial theory, offering vital insights for ethnomusicology, cultural studies, literary analysis, history, sociology, and political economy. This book examines how popular music in its diverse forms surged during the 1960s-a pivotal period marked by anti-colonial resistance movements across the global south and within Europe itself. The work traces how popular music served to foster and document resistance against violent oppression, reflecting broader cultural and political transformations of the era. By bridging these traditionally separate academic fields, the book reveals how musical practices shaped postcolonial identities and voiced dissent, making it essential reading for scholars and students interested in understanding culture, power, and musical expression in the postcolonial world.

Key Features

Popular Music and the Postcolonial by Routledge bridges ethnomusicology and postcolonial studies to examine music's role in anti-colonial movements and cultural resistance.

The book explores how popular music exploded in the 1960s alongside sound technology advances and demographic shifts that enabled global cultural change.

Addresses interdisciplinary scholarship spanning history, sociology, political economy, cultural studies, and literary analysis through the lens of popular music.

Documents how popular music fostered and recorded resistance to violent oppression during the era of radical agitation against European empires in the global south.

Offers crucial perspectives for understanding the relationship between musical expression and postcolonial identity formation in the modern era.
