Anotace knihy

This book is about the music that young portenas/os (the inhabitants of Buenos Aires, Argentina) actually listen to nowadays. Departing from a well entrenched stereotype that equates Buenos Aires with tango, this collection of essays shows that few native Argentines listen to this musical genre on a daily basis, and even fewer dance tango. Based on extensive field work individual chapters address the ways in which cumbia, rock nacional, and romantic music provide young people from different social sectors with both enjoyment and the tools they use for understanding who they are in the aftermath of the traumatic neoliberal experience that brought the country to near total collapse in the early days of the present century. Written from the perspective of the long tradition of sociology and anthropology of music most of the articles use ethnography and content analysis as methods of inquiry. Because there is a huge gap in the market (to date no academically reliable book exists on Argentine popular music, with the exception of those dealing with the fashionable topic of tango) this book will appeal to a quite wide audience. On the one hand to those professors who teach undergraduate and graduate courses on Latin American culture, Latin American music, and sociology and anthropology of music. At the same time the book will appeal to those scholars who do research on those areas. A general audience interested in music, Latin American culture and society will be interested as well because while the chapters are clearly academically oriented they are easy to read.
