Abstract
MORENO-ELIZONDO, José-Rodrigo. Countercultural Crisis and Rock in México City: Production Relationships, Live Reproduction and Sociability, 1972-1977. Hist. Soc. [online]. 2020, n.38, pp.205-228. ISSN 0121-8417. https://doi.org/10.15446/hys.n38.79865.
This article reconstructs a scarcely explored period in Mexico's musical history. The text analyses the transformation of the relationships in industrial production in the capital in the course of countercultural disarticulation, of authoritarian State reinforcement and musical retreat to the underground. It gives an account of the contraction of industrial musical production, and mass media exposure in relationship with local countercultural musicians. Thus, it argues that live musical reproduction was the main determination in the autonomy, but in the relationship with the industrial core and the musically imagined community itself.
Keywords : counterculture; popular music; rock; local scene; cultural industry; live music reproduction.
