Description
Music and Democracy explores music as a resource for societal transformation processes. This book provides recent insights into how individuals and groups used and still use music to achieve social, cultural, and political participation and bring about social change. The contributors present outstanding perspectives on the topic: From the promise and myth of democratization through music technology to the use of music in imposing authoritarian, neoliberal or even fascist political ideas in the past and present up to music's impact on political systems, governmental representation, and socio-political realities. The volume further features approaches in the fields of gender, migration, disability, and digitalization.
Reviews / Votes
»Whilst quite a few academic works in this field adopt a clearly supportive or critically dismissive stance, Drazic's account is by no means biased, but is characterised by a broad perspective, drawing on a very convincingly applied theoretical toolkit (discourse-analytical concepts, contextual analysis, descriptive models of social units). [.] A highly recommended book! « (translated from German)More details
