Description based upon print version of record.. - List of Illustrations; Preface; Acknowledgments; Introduction; 1. China Diversified: An Overview of Popular Music in the Reform Era, 1978 -1997; 2. The Negotiation of Minority/ Majority Identities and Representation in Popular Music Culture; 3. Negotiating Gender in Post-Revolutionary Popular Music Culture: Reconstructing Manhood, Womanhood, and Sexuality; 4. Popular Music and State Politics: Hegemony, Resistance, Symbiosis, and Unity; Notes; References; Index. - This is the most comprehensive study to date of the rich popular music scene in contemporary China. Focusing on the city of Beijing and drawing upon extensive fieldwork, China's New Voices shows that during the 1980s and 1990s, rock and pop music, combined with new technologies and the new market economy, have enabled marginalized groups to achieve a new public voice that is often independent of the state.
