Download or read book The Place of Music written by Andrew Leyshon and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 1998-03-21 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is omnipresent in human society, but its language can no longer be regarded as transcendent or universal. Like other art forms, music is produced and consumed within complex economic, cultural, and political frameworks in different places and at different historical moments. Taking an explicitly spatial approach, this unique interdisciplinary text explores the role played by music in the formation and articulation of geographical imaginations--local, regional, national, and global. Contributors show how music's facility to be recorded, stored, and broadcast; to be performed and received in private and public; and to rouse intense emotional responses for individuals and groups make it a key force in the definition of a place. Covering rich and varied terrain--from Victorian England, to 1960s Los Angeles, to the offices of Sony and Time-Warner and the landscapes of the American Depression--the volume addresses such topics as the evolution of musical genres, the globalization of music production and marketing, alternative and hybridized music scenes as sites of localized resistance, the nature of soundscapes, and issues of migration and national identity.

Book Music Genres and Corporate Cultures

Download or read book Music Genres and Corporate Cultures written by Keith Negus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music Genres and Corporate Cultures explores the seemingly haphazard workings of the music industry, tracing the uneasy relationship between economics and culture; `entertainment corporations' and the artists they sign. Keith Negus examines the contrasting strategies of major labels like Sony and Polygram in managing different genres, artists and staff. How do takeovers affect the treatment of artists? Why has Polygram been perceived as too European to attract US artists? And how did Warner's wooden floors help them sign Green Day? Through in-depth case studies of three major genres; rap, country, and salsa, Negus explores the way in which the music industry recognises and rewards certain sounds, and how this influences both the creativity of musicians, and their audiences. He examines the tension between raps public image as the spontaneous `music of the streets' and the practicalities of the market, and asks why country labels and radio stations promote top-selling acts like Garth Brooks over hard-to-classify artists like Mary Chapin-Carpenter, and how the lack of soundscan systems in Puerto Rican record shops affects salsa music's position on the US Billboard chart. Drawing on over seventy interviews with music industry personnel in Britain and the United States, Music Genres and Corporate Cultures shows how the creation, circulation and consumption of popular music is shaped by record companies and corporate business styles while stressing that music production takes within a broader culture, not totally within the control of large corporations.

Book Droit d auteur et droits voisins  4e   d

Download or read book Droit d auteur et droits voisins 4e d written by Michel Vivant and published by Editis - Interforum. This book was released on 2019-01-09 with total page 7857 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'ouvrage a pour objet l'étude du droit d'auteur contemporain et des droits voisins qui gravitent autour de lui.

Ce Précis "Droit d'auteur et droits voisins", offre un triple éclairage qui le caractérise : contemporanéité, théorisation et proximité de la pratique. Il s'adresse donc aussi bien aux étudiants désireux de découvrir la matière hors les schémas convenus qu'aux professionnels soucieux de disposer d'une présentation raisonnée de celle-ci pour venir enrichir leur pratique.

Book Lifestyle Migration

Download or read book Lifestyle Migration written by Michaela Benson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relatively affluent individuals from various corners of the globe are increasingly choosing to migrate, spurred on by the promise of a better and more fulfilling way of life within their destination. Despite its increasing scale, migration academics have yet to consolidate and establish lifestyle migration as a subfield of theoretical enquiry, until now. This volume offers a dynamic and holistic analysis of contemporary lifestyle migrations, exploring the expectations and aspirations which inform and drive migration alongside the realities of life within the destination. It also recognizes the structural conditions (and constraints) which frame lifestyle migration, laying the groundwork for further intellectual enquiry. Through rich empirical case studies this volume addresses this important and increasingly common form of migration in a manner that will interest scholars of mobility, migration, lifestyle and culture across the social sciences.

Book La Fiscalit   du droit d auteur et des droits voisins

Download or read book La Fiscalit du droit d auteur et des droits voisins written by Prénom Nom Auteur relatif à l'oeuvre ou à l'expression and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couv. indique : "Dix ans séparent le présent ouvrage de la première édition. Si les dispositions légales introduites par la loi du 16 juillet 2008 instaurant un régime de taxation forfaitaire des droits d'auteur et des droits voisins n'ont été que très peu modifiées, l'appréciation des notions d'oeuvre protégée, de droits d'auteur et de droits voisins par l'administration fiscale a fortement évolué. Les premiers litiges avec l'administration fiscale sont également intervenus. Dans la première partie de cet ouvrage, l'auteur rappelle les conditions en vertu desquelles une oeuvre est protégée par le droit d'auteur ainsi que les conditions de la protection d'une prestation artistique. L'auteur s'attarde particulièrement sur la question de l'originalité et de l'expression (autrefois mise en forme) de l'oeuvre. Il rappelle que les oeuvres protégeables englobent également les oeuvres fonctionnelles ou utilitaires, de sorte que de nombreuses professions peuvent voir leurs oeuvres bénéficier de la protection du droit d'auteur. La deuxième partie de l'ouvrage est consacrée à l'analyse du régime fiscal applicable aux revenus résultant de la cession ou de la concession de droits d'auteur et de droits voisins ainsi qu'aux revenus résultant des licences légales ou obligatoires. L'auteur analyse, en termes abordables pour tous, ce régime fiscal particulièrement avantageux, tant dans le chef du bénéficiaire des revenus que dans le chef du débiteur de ceux-ci. Enfin, Sébastien Watelet traite aussi de questions spécifiques que l'application de la T.V.A. pose aux auteurs et aux artistes. L'ouvrage s'adresse tant aux auteurs et aux artistes qu'à leurs conseillers.

Book The Myth of the Muslim Tide

Download or read book The Myth of the Muslim Tide written by Doug Saunders and published by Knopf Canada. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even among people who would never subscribe to its more dramatic claims, the "Eurabia" movement has popularized a set of seemingly common-sense assumptions about Muslim immigrants to the West: that they are disloyal, that they have a political agenda driven by their faith, that their nhigh reproduction rates will soon make them a majority. These beliefs are poisoning politics and community relations in Europe and North America--and have led to mass murder in Norway. Rarely challenged, these claims have even slipped into the margins of mainstream politics. Doug Saunders believes it's time to debunk the myth that immigrants from Muslim countries are wildly different and pose a threat to the West. Drawing on voluminous demographic, statistical, scholarly and historical documentation, Saunders examines the real lives and circumstances of Muslim immigrants in the West: their politics, their beliefs, their observances and their degrees of assimilation. In the process he shatters the core claims that have built a murderous ideology and draws haunting historical parallels showing how the same myths stuck to earlier groups, such as Jews and Roman Catholics. His work will become a vital handbook in the culture wars that threaten to dominate North American and European elections and media discussions in 2012 and afterwards, and will provoke considerable debate over the actual nature of our polyglot societies.
