Larry Portis, Popular Music and Capitalism : Towards a Sociology of Authenticity
Music has an important place in the evolution of capitalist societies in adapting its rhythms, its cadences and the expression of themes which reflect emotional needs in a changing social environment. A sociology of popular music must therefore consider musical sensibilities and tendencies from both aesthetic and political points of view. Nowhere have musical cultures resisted entirely the powerful influence of African-American music, the result of marketing strategies and of cultural fascination. The notion of authenticity is central in the process of subordination and revolt in industrial-capitalist societies. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
