| Zusammenfassung: | "What does it mean, in a polarized political climate, that feminism is popular in mainstream pop? Engaging with feminist theory and previous research about gender and music, this book investigates the meaning of current trends relating to gender, feminism and woman-identified artists in mediated popular music. The examples discussed throughout the book include Beyoncé’s concert documentary Homecoming, the Swedish music industry #MeToo petition signed by 2,192 artists, the television show Star and the functions of a music streaming service. The volume discusses the media specificity of the different examples; introduces and explains feminist theories and concepts; and analyses the position of women, gender equality and feminism in mainstream pop music today." |
