En France, les rave-parties - ces fêtes techno souvent clandestines qui ont défrayé la chronique au long des années 2000 - sont dans le collimateur des autorités. De fait, si les raves ont longtemps constitué un espace de liberté, les institutions ont vite tenté de les réprimer et/ou de les encadrer, et plutôt avec succès. Cette musique et ces regroupements a priori apolitiques ont été considérés essentiellement sous l’angle de l’ordre public ; autrement dit, les fêtes techno « non commerciales », qui auraient pu relever des compétences du ministère de la Culture, sont aujourd’hui principalement gérées par le ministère de l’Intérieur. Pourtant, les conflits de normes demeurent nombreux parmi les acteurs publics qui encadrent les raves. Ils hésitent entre une gestion policière et une gestion sanitaire de ces manifestations avant tout festives, mais où la présence de drogues constitue un élément de cristallisation des inquiétudes. Tout l’enjeu de cet ouvrage, tiré d’une enquête de terrain, est de comprendre les mécanismes de transformation de la fête techno en problème public et d’en analyser la gestion par les autorités politiques.

Madchester may have been born at the Hacienda in the summer of 1988, but the city had been in creative ferment for almost a decade prior to the rise of acid house. The end-of-the-century party is the definitive account of a generational shift in popular music and youth culture, what it meant and what it led to. First published right after the Second Summer of Love, it tells the story of the transition from new pop to the political pop of the mid-1980s and its deviant offspring, post-political pop. Resisting contemporary proclamations about the end of youth culture and the rise of a new, right-leaning conformism, the book draws on interviews with DJs, record company bosses, musicians, producers and fans to outline a clear transition in pop thinking, a move from an obsession with style, packaging and synthetic sounds to content, socially conscious lyrics and a new authenticity. This edition is framed by a prologue by Tara Brabazon, asking how we can reclaim the spirit, energy and authenticity of Madchester for a post-youth, post-pop generation. It is illustrated with iconic photographs by Kevin Cummins. --.

While social scientists, beginning with Weber, envisioned a secularized world, religion today is forthrightly becoming a defining feature of life all around the globe. The complex connections between religion and politics, and the ways in which globalization shapes these processes, are central themes explored in this volume by leading scholars in the field of religion. Does the holism of numerous past and present day cosmologies mean that religions with their holistic orientations are integral to human existence? What happens when political ideologies and projects are framed as transcendent

In a tour de force of lyrical theory, Joshua Clover boldly reimagines how we understand both pop music and its social context in a vibrant exploration of a year famously described as "the end of history." Amid the historic overturnings of 1989, including the fall of the Berlin Wall, pop music also experienced striking changes. Vividly conjuring cultural sensations and events, Clover tracks the emergence of seemingly disconnected phenomena--from grunge to acid house to gangsta rap--asking if "perhaps pop had been biding its time until 1989 came along to make sense of its sensibility." His analysis deftly moves among varied artists and genres including Public Enemy, N.W.A., Dr. Dre, De La Soul, The KLF, Nine Inch Nails, Nirvana, U2, Jesus Jones, the Scorpions, George Michael, Madonna, Roxette, and others. This elegantly written work, deliberately mirroring history as dialectical and ongoing, summons forth a new understanding of how "history had come out to meet pop as something more than a fairytale, or something less. A truth, a way of being."
