Description

Explore the deep connections between music and social change in this academic study. The Discourse of Protest, Resistance and Social Commentary in Reggae Music offers a Bakhtinian examination of Pacific reggae, focusing on how lyrics, performance, and even album art function as tools for protest. This book uses the theories of Russian literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin to analyze the ways meaning is created within the genre. By looking at the social and political context of New Zealand, the text provides a multi-faceted look at the dialogic relationships found in popular music. A primary focus of this investigation is the award-winning EP What's Be Happen?, making this an essential read for those interested in linguistics, musicology, and Pacific studies. Whether you are a student of linguistics or a fan of reggae, this Routledge publication provides a fresh perspective on how music serves as a medium for resistance and commentary.
