A book review.
Popular Music and Society: Sound Tracks: Popular Music, Identity and Place: "The local not only continues to be the place in which most people encounter music and its potential meanings, according to Connell and Gibson, but conceptualizations of the local have become even more crucial in the global context. Often, the local lingers in new transnational situations as a reinvented ideal of authenticity, allowing senses of place to be voraciously commodified. But so too, Connell and Gibson note, locality and place help people cope with, transform, or even resist, the disruptive, harmful aspects of the growing global market."
