The Journal Rights article is available online at: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03007766.2011.5679 16 1 The Cultural Politics of Introducing Popular Music into China’s Music Education The Cultural Politics of Introducing Popular Music into China’s Music Education Wai-Chung Ho and Wing-Wah Law Since embarking on its course of economic reform and opening up to the world in the late 1970s, China has moved from a planned economy to a socialist-market economy; the resultant social and cultural changes have been many, and are reflected in the country’s school music curriculum. This paper first introduces the historical background of popular music in the community and in school music in China in the twentieth century. Second, it explores the reform of music education that has, from the turn of the millennium, included popular music in school music education. This is followed by a discussion of the integration of popular music into the school curriculum in terms of how music education and cultural politics are shaped by the social and political relationships between: (i) contemporary cultural and social values and traditional Chinese ideologies; (ii) collectivism and individualism; and (iii) nationalism and globalism.

Distinction in China—the rise of taste in cultural consumption 3 Abstract This research studies how cultural consumption draws cultural distinctions in the most developed megacities in China. This research examines the pattern of music consumption to examine distinction—which types of music are used, how they are used, who are using them, and what are the sources of those tastes. Although some theories, such as the cultural omnivore account, contend that the rise of contemporary pop culture implies a more open-minded pursuit of taste, this research argues that popular culture draws distinction in new ways.
