碩士 / 國立臺北大學 / 社會學系 / 91 / Using Faye Wang’s music, this study attempts to probe the multi-dimensional effects of popular music. Taken globalization as a given background and adopting semiology, I analyze Faye Wang’s work as a case to demonstrate popular culture may have the potential to reverse (or at least challenge/question) the popular notion of globalization. In addition, this research also attempts to question the validity and applicability of “cultural industry.” Guided by feminist ideas and methodology, the research finds Faye Wang’s songs, with its amazing popularity in the Chinese community, thought appeared as a commodity, do in fact contain ideas and images that seriously challenge the traditional understanding about being women and man. In all, Faye Wang, in this research, is being seen as a counter stream of globalization. Equally important, popular songs as a form of popular culture may (and can) have the ability to liberalize people from the dominance of traditional ideas.
