Pop-rock music: aesthetic cosmopolitanism in late modernity

Abstract

This book highlights the connecting threads between contemporary sociological theory and the nebulous fusion of pop music and rock music that is “pop-rock”. The author, Motti Regev, addresses three questions: why did pop-rock emerge to become such a prominent cultural form on a world scale? How did pop-rock music achieve its status and legitimacy? And what are the cultural consequences of this achievement?
