Summary: Since the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster, antinuclear activism has swelled into one of the most popular and passionate movements in Japan. The Revolution Will Not Be Televised shows that music played a central role in expressing antinuclear sentiments and mobilizing Japanese political resistance . Combining musical analysis with ethnographic participation, author Noriko Manabe offers an innovative typology of spaces central to the performance of protest music--cyberspace, demonstrations, festivals, and recordings--and provides a compelling new perspective on the role of music in political movements. |
