    POPULAR MUSIC MAKING IN CANADA AND GREECE GLOBAL MUSIC, LOCAL CULTURE: POPULAR MUSIC MAKING IN CANADA AND GREECE By ATHENA ELAFROS, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School ofGraduate Studies In Partial Fulfilment ofthe Requirements For the Degree Doctor ofPhilosophy McMaster University (c) Copyright by Athena Elafros, January 20 II DOCTOR OF PIDLOSOPHY (20 11) McMaster University (Sociology) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Global Music, Local Culture: Popular Music Making in Canada and Greece AUTHOR: Athena Elafros, B.A. (University ofToronto), M.A. (Queen's University) SUPERVISOR: Graham Knight COMMITTEE MEMBERS: Tina Fetner Christina Baade NUMBER OF PAGES: vii~ 242 11 Abstract The purpose ofthis dissertation is to better theorize the relationship between cultural production, popular music and cultural identity. While broadly examining popular music, the primary focus ofthis study is on black popular music making and hip hop cultures in Canada and Greece. My dissertation focuses upon three distinct case studies in Toronto, Canada; Athens, Greece; and Vancouver, Canada. Each ofthe three case studies in my dissertation contributes, and offers revisions, to Bourdieusian studies ofcultural production. Whether it is DJs in Toronto trying to assert authorship and legitimate their roles as musicians, an MC in Vancouver trying to conceptualize a new mode ofdiasporic belonging for Greeks ofthe diaspora, or male hip hop practitioners in Athens utilizing their historical knowledge ofthe Greek field of popular music to authenticate their pursuits in rap music, each case study provides a different lens through which to understand how popular music makers use music in their quests for cultural legitimacy, diasporic belonging and/or authentication.
