| Abstract | This book examines the relations between the policies and institutions which regulate contemporary popular music and the political debates, contradictions, and struggles in which those musics are involved. International in its scope and conception, this collection explores the reasons for and ways in which governments have sought either to support or prohibit popular music in Canada, Australia, and Europe, as well as the impact of broadcasting policies in forming and shaping different musical communities. |
