Description

This introductory textbook sets out the key issues for understanding French popular culture. Looking at topics such as the media, music and fashion, it provides a structured and coherent analysis of the economics and politics behind popular culture, as well as a discussion of its social and cultural significance. Bringing together an international team of experts in French Studies, the book focuses on the period 1945-2000, and supports its discussion with a range of pedagogic tools such as a series of case studies, topics for discussion and further study and an annotated reading list.
