    CHAPTER 2 ‘From the night and the light, all festivals are golden’: The festivalization of culture in the late modernity1,2 Paula Guerra Abstract Festivals have been stated as important forms of social and cultural participation. In the twenty‐first century, all countries have been faced with a number of annual2 festivals, but also by diversifying the type of festivals, its location and its audiences. The festival model has expanded all over the world and became globalize. With this model emerged the so‐ called ‘festivalization of culture’. Portugal was no different in this phenomenon. The main purpose of this chapter is to explore the Portuguese festival dynamics. These dynamics have the function of globalization coding, marketing and culture of media coverage, mobilizing thousands of actors on the supply side, in mediation and on the demand side. There are several elements that prove this in Portugal: unprecedented evolution in the number of festivals over the past two decades; the spread of festivals around the country, especially in its Atlantic coast and in metropolitan areas; the exponential increase of the habitués; the weight of the turnover of the festivals in the statement of accounts culture and cultural industries; the importance of festivals for the launch and projection of the bands; and, above all, the design of a new way of life in an environment marked by consumptions, appropriations and embodiments of practices, associated with experience and sociability of the festival. 1 This chapter result of an intensive research carried out since 2005, anchored in three projects.

FACTORES DE COMPETITIVIDAD DE UNA INDUSTRIA CREATIVA DINÁMICA. Este estudio pretende identificar el contexto y las características de los festivales de música en Cataluña, especialmente en un contexto geográfico más amplio, con el objetivo de evaluar hasta qué grado este modelo encaja dentro del marco europeo. Estos eventos se encuentran en una fase de crecimiento y popularidad entre el público sin precedentes, que ha sido facilitada por las nuevas tendencias turísticas, empresariales y de ocio y los ha llevado a ser los eventos culturales más populares en Europa. Son puntos clave en estrategias culturales y turísticas alrededor de Europa, dan trabajo a miles de personas y funcionan como dinamizadores económicos en las regiones donde se celebran. Este estudio analizará el contexto histórico y económico de los festivales Catalanes y Europeos, sus características y tendencias en la actualidad (estado del arte), el efecto que algunos fenómenos han tenido sobre ellos (como las tecnologías digitales, la recesión económica y el crecimiento en popularidad) y las diferencias que separan ambos ecosistemas y los hacen únicos.

Otherwise, the record fits in equally well with the Soho free-jazz loft scene as it does with the gyrating punk of CBGB. When I teach students, I teach them to play more like themselves.

Sommaire #57 LA MATIÈRE ET L’ESPRIT Un doigt vers le ciel La religion a au moins le mérite de montrer que l’homme n’est pas maître, qu’il doit obéir à plus fort que lui, et qu’il serait fou de tout raisonner. Mais la religion ne s’arrête pas à cette hauteur. Quand les prophètes et les docteurs prétendent posséder un peu de cette puissance supérieure pour dominer les hommes, ils renversent notre faiblesse vis- à-vis du Tout-Puissant – ou de la nature – en infériorité. Ils imposent les saints parmi les leurs et font peur à la foule. Ils interdisent, sans en avoir le droit, puisqu’ils s’appuient sur la misère métaphysique pour imposer l’ordre politique. L’homme est misérable, c’est un fait. Mais ce n’est pas un crime d’être infidèle, ce que déclarent les docteurs en usant de leur orthodoxie pour condamner. Que signifient donc leurs maisons de Dieu dont les clochers et les minarets dépassent les toits ? La réussite d’une carte postale ? Un hommage à la beauté ? Des remerciements au Grand Être ? La supériorité du culte sur l’inculte ? Un doigt vers le ciel ? Un index accusateur, un coup de knout.
