A study of the linkages between popular music and politics in South Africa under Apartheid in the 1980sDurbach, David Justin 03 1900 (has links)
This dissertation seeks to explore how the exercise of political power and the
music industry impacted each other in South Africa under apartheid during the
1980s. It does so by looking firstly at the ways in which the South African
government used music to promote apartheid. Secondly, it looks at the role of
South African popular musicians in the struggle against apartheid in the country,
specifically their role in civil society and the methods they employed to fight
apartheid while avoiding censorship. It looks at key musical developments of the
decade and explores their political implications, focusing on three popular genres:
bubblegum (or disco), crossover and reggae. Thirdly, it explores the role of South
African music and musicians in the struggle against apartheid outside South
Africa. Finally, it looks at the role of music in the international anti-apartheid
movement and the contribution of the international music community to the
struggle. / Political Sciences / M.A. (African Politics)
