Has A Half Century of World Music Trade Displaced Local Culture?
Book • 2010
This research analyzes the global music consumption and trade since 1960, using a unique dataset of popular music charts from 22 countries.
It investigates whether the increased availability of music from large economies, particularly the US, has displaced local music in smaller economies.
The study finds that trade volumes are higher between geographically closer countries and those sharing a language, and that domestic music consumption has increased sharply in the past decade.
It also notes that national policies, such as radio airplay quotas, may contribute to the increased consumption of local music.
