More about the book
Focusing on the intersection of music and politics, this book explores the significant role of estrada in Uzbekistan from 2001 to 2016, during the Karimov era. It highlights how the government elevated this genre as a symbol of national identity and a remnant of socialist heritage, reflecting broader political dynamics and cultural shifts. Through its analysis, the book reveals how popular music served as a tool for state propaganda and a means of social cohesion in a transforming society.
