Made in Latin America serves as a comprehensive introduction to the history, sociology, and musicology of contemporary Latin American popular music. Each essay, written by a leading scholar of Latin American music, covers the major figures, styles, and social contexts of popular music in Latin America and provides adequate context so readers understand why the figure or genre under discussion is of lasting significance. The book first presents a general description of the history and background of popular music, followed by essays organized into thematic sections: Theoretical Issues; Transnational Scenes; Local and National Scenes; Class, Identity, and Politics; and Gendered Scenes.
Julio Mendívil is Director of the Center for World Music at the University of Hildesheim, Germany.
Christian Spencer Espinosa is an ethnomusicologist, musician and sociologist. He holds a PhD in musicology from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid and Universidad Nova de Lisboa (European Mention).
