Scene Thinking (eBook, ePUB)

Cultural Studies from the Scenes Perspective
Redaktion: Woo, Benjamin; Rennie, Jamie; Poyntz, Stuart

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

How is cultural activity shaped by the places where it unfolds? One answer has been found in the 'scenes perspective', a development within popular music studies that explains change and transformation within musical practices in terms of the social and institutional histories of scenes. In a series of case studies, this book demonstrates how 'scene thinking' can enrich cultural studies inquiry, and sensitize researchers to complex, fluid processes that are nonetheless anchored and made meaningful at the level of lived experience. This book was originally published as a special issue of Cultural Studies.
