MUSIC FOR THE INTERNATIONAL MASSES: AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY, THE RECORDING INDUSTRY, AND PUNK ROCK IN THE COLD WAR by MINDY CLEGG Under the Direction of ALEX SAYF CUMMINGS, PhD ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the connections between US foreign policy initiatives, the global expansion of the American recording industry, and the rise of punk in the 1970s and 1980s. The material support of the US government contributed to the globalization of the recording industry and functioned as a facet American-style consumerism. As American culture spread, so did questions about the Cold War and consumerism. As young people began to question the Cold War order they still consumed American mass culture as a way of rebelling against the establishment. But corporations complicit in the Cold War produced this mass culture. Punks embraced cultural rebellion like hippies. -
The Music of the National Liberation Struggle and Social Engagement
Partisan Resistance Today? The Music of the National Liberation Struggle and Social Engagement Ana Hofman and Martin Pogačar They kept trying to smother the songs of resistance, but they did not smother them, ever, nor the spark of resistance, which was constantly smouldering here and there and burst into a flame of rebellion. (Hercigonja and Karakljajić 1962) Any interpretation of the past can only be a dissonant and dynamic, always political and without doubt a performative process. This spurs the emergence of and competition between alternative interpretations of the past that may also be understood as acts of opposition and even resistance to dominant and/or competing narratives. This is particu- larly clear when references to particular historical periods or events are problematised in daily political struggles and media discourses: recourse to alternate histories or the search for alternative visions of the past can thus be regarded as an attempt to devise a potential con- ceptual framework within which an articulation of alternative politics 21 (visions of the future) is possible. This carries with it certain (political) connotations that in the post-Yugoslav context are powered by the his- torical experience and perpetual reinterpretations of the national lib- eration struggle and antifascist resistance, as well as the entire period of socialist Yugoslavia – these periods have notably defined Yugoslav and contemporary social, (pop) cultural and political milieux, and the responses to it. In this essay, we discuss the shifting meanings and ascribed in- terpretations of the historical experience of the Yugoslav antifascist resistance as expressed through music. In an attempt to encourage this reflection on the musical expressions of the partisan resistance from a historical perspective, we primarily analyse scholarly works and media discourses and combine historical, musicological and cultural studies approaches. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 2 Abstract This thesis employs historical, literary and anthropological methods to show how narratives of identity have been expressed in Croatia since 1991 (when Croatia declared independence from Yugoslavia) through popular music and through talking about popular music. Since the beginning of the war in Croatia (1991-95) when the state media stimulated the production of popular music conveying appropriate narratives of national identity, Croatian popular music has been a site for the articulation of explicit national narratives of identity. The practice has continued into the present day, reflecting political and social change in Croatia (e.g. the growth of the war veterans lobby and protests against the Hague Tribunal). -

It begins with a discussion of the suppression of patriotic music in the early decades of socialist Yugoslavia, when the regime attempted to create a supranational culture that would unify Yugoslavia’s constituent nations. It then analyses the national cultural revival in Croatia in the late 1960s that prompted a political movement known as the Croatian Spring, when the pop singer Vice Vukov incorporated Croatian patriotic themes into his songs. In the years following the crushing of the Croatian Spring in 1971, Croatian nationalism was again suppressed in politics and music, and because of this stifling of political opposition Croatia was dubbed “the silent republic.” For the rest of the 1970s the political function of pop and rock music was reflected in its glorification of Yugoslavia and its leader, Josip Broz Tito. -

New Wave in Yugoslavia: Socio-Political Context Udc 316.723:78(497.11)
FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Philosophy, Sociology, Psychology and History Vol. 12, No1, 2013, pp. 69 - 83 NEW WAVE IN YUGOSLAVIA: SOCIO-POLITICAL CONTEXT UDC 316.723:78(497.11) Jelena Božilović University of Niš, Faculty of Philosophy, Serbia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. This paper analyzes the social and political implications of a popular culture music trend known as New Wave in SFRY. This trend was created in Great Britain and USA by the end of the 1970's but it "moved" to our country, as well, due to its opennes to Western culture. The Yugoslav New Wave was not a sheer copy of the Western trend but it managed to create its own original music expression becoming a phenomenon of one generation. The most popular new wave bands (Prljavo kazalište, Azra, Haustor, Film, Lajbah, Šarlo akrobata, Električni orgazam, Idoli) left a significant mark on the society, generation and the whole epoch not only in the sense of the music they created but also in the social, cultural and political sense. The New Wave was an avant-gard music trend whose ideals were reflected in simple musical forms, characteristic ideological engagement, visual presentations (music album covers and posters) and particularly in their lyrics full of irony, allusions and metaphors in relation to the establishment of the time. The paper compares the Western and Yugoslav new wave and punk music with a reference to their achievements and influence which is still present in contemporary culture. Key words: New Wave, Subculture, SFRY, Socialist ideology, Urban culture INTRODUCTION The new music trend, known as New Wave, originated in Great Britain and the Unated States of America in the late 1970s. -

The “Jaranization” of Yugoslav Rock and Roll Before 1974: Use of Folklore in the Early Stages of the Development of the Yugoslav Rock Scene
The “Jaranization” of Yugoslav Rock and Roll before 1974: Use of Folklore in the Early Stages of the Development of the Yugoslav Rock Scene Irena Šentevska I have often claimed thatzabavna [entertainment] and narodna [traditional/folk] would become one, and that this would simply be- come Yugoslav music. Milovan “Minimaks” Ilić (cited in Ivačković 2013: 110) INTRODUCTION Debates on the social position and (political) influence of the rock scene in socialist Yugoslavia have put forward various (and often con- flicting) interpretations of the use and role of folkloric motifs in the creative output of Yugoslav rock musicians. In spite of the consider- able differences between the decades, in the late 1960s and throughout the 1970s some rock bands (e.g., YU grupa, Korni grupa, S vremena na vreme, Smak, Bijelo dugme, Leb i sol, etc.) used folkloric elements 167 in spontaneous attempts to attract audiences with music that more or less already had a strong presence in their lives. These groups sought to expand their audience base to segments of the youth population that favoured folk music idioms. This strategy was also helpful in dealing with the music executives at the broadcasters and record companies. At the same time, such “nostrification” was an asset in overcoming the ideologically-driven resistance to rock and roll, which was often perceived from different sides in the (socialist) society as an alien and decadent form of Western popular culture. In the socialist context, rock music incorporating folkloric ele- ments assumed two basic roles: 1) the “domestication” of rock and roll as a cluster of imported Western music idioms, lifestyles and value sys- tems, largely in disharmony with the social order in the Eastern Bloc countries (not excluding Yugoslavia); 2) the mediation of the national identities, where such music could perform both “centrifugal” and “centripetal” functions in asserting either unitary or separate ethnic identities, respectively. -
Rock Music in Eastern Europe – Introduction
Rock Music in Eastern Europe – Introduction Due to the East-West Bloc formation in Europe following the Second World War, the conditions for rock music in Eastern Europe were different from those in most countries in the West of our continent. For rock fans from Western Europe, access to Eastern European rock music in the form of obtaining information and LP releases in the seventies and eighties was difficult, but not completely impossible. Today, more than 25 years after the dissolution of the Eastern European economic and military alliance and the disintegration or destruction of Yugoslavia, a large part of those countries belong to the EU and NATO. The music market has also changed fundamentally. In the meantime, practically everything is available on the Internet as second-hand records and CDs that once were produced in Eastern Europe and as new CDs and a few new LPs, although the business practices of some Eastern European sellers are not always causing satisfaction to put it mildly. There is also a lot of information on the net, but unfortunately most of it requires sufficient knowledge of Eastern European languages. However, what is missing so far is a comparative work on the development of rock music in the individual Eastern European countries from the early sixties to the end of the eighties and beyond. And a discographic selection of the interesting items for record and CD collectors and other rock music lovers in a package with an introduction to the subject of rock music in Eastern Europe on English. Rock music from Eastern Europe has been my topic for 30 years and my mailorder also began 30 years ago.
