Description

Explore the evolution of French music through this academic study from Routledge. This book examines how popular music became a central part of socio-cultural modernization in France during the 1960s and 1970s. As the music and record industry grew in economic and cultural importance, it responded to major demographic shifts and the expansion of modern media. This work analyzes the period surrounding May 1968, a time when France began questioning traditional political and cultural structures. You will learn how music became an essential element of media activity as press, radio, and television moved away from state domination. This text provides a detailed look at how music reflects changing identities and societal shifts during a transformative era in French history.
