Popular music is not only a remarkable phenomenon in terms of leisure, but also in terms of studying the practices associated with the differentiaton of society. This workshop focuses on the period of dynamic changes around 1989/1990.
Youth, popular music and the class in times of post-socialist change
The organized workshop is focused on the period of political, economic, social and cultural changes before and after 1989. In addition to diversifying music scenes and establishing commercial institutions, new social and cultural distinctions gradually arose as well.
Main goal of the workshop is to outline the ways and means by which music entered the generation dimension, especially about the youth. To encourage intelectuall dialogue and exchange of ideas, the workshop provides an overview of the current state of research.
The workshop provides insights into the complex relationship between categories of “generation”, “popular music” and “class” in the period of perestroika and early post-socialism. It takes the form of overview of the state-of-play and more narrowly specified case studies. It discusses general theoretical approaches of grasping the given phenomenon as well as wider social, institutional, musical and historical contexts.
