Drawing on a wide range of archival resources and over 40 interviews with composers, lyricists, singers, and bureaucrats, Tochka describes how popular music became integral to governmental projects to improve society and a major concern for both state-socialist and post-socialist regimes between 1945 and the present. 606 $aPopular music$xPolitical aspects$zAlbania 606 $aMusic and state 606 $aPopular music$zAlbania$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aPopular music$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aMusic and state. 615 0$aPopular music$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a781.64094965 700 $aTochka$b Nicholas$01234040 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136229403321 996 $aAudible states$92866445 997 $aUNINA
