Opis

This text challenges the monolithic portrayals of folk music and social change under commission by making a case for people's music and shows how new folk music embodies an inherently pluralistic concept of Yugoslavia's culture. Introducing one of the most vital forms of popular culture to emerge in east-central Europe and based on extensive fieldwork, the book engages the polemical perspectives of Yugoslav commentators and draws extensively on interpretive insights by musicians, media and music industry insiders.
