520    "In mid-1990s South Africa, apartheid ended, Nelson 
       Mandela was elected president, and the country's urban 
       black youth developed kwaito--a form of electronic music 
       (redolent of North American house) that came to represent 
       the post-struggle generation. In this book, Gavin Steingo 
       examines kwaito as it has developed alongside the 
       democratization of South Africa over the past two decades.
       Tracking the fall of South African hope into the 
       disenchantment that often characterizes the outlook of its
       youth today - who face high unemployment, extreme 
       inequality, and widespread crime--Steingo looks to kwaito 
       as a powerful tool that paradoxically engages South 
       Africa's crucial social and political problems by, in fact,
       seeming to ignore them. Politicians and cultural critics 
       have long criticized kwaito for failing to provide any 
       meaningful contribution to a society that desperately 
       needs direction. As Steingo shows, however, these 
       criticisms are built on problematic assumptions about the 
       political function of music. Interacting with kwaito 
       artists and fans, he shows that youth aren't escaping 
       their social condition through kwaito but rather using it 
       to expand their sensory realities and generate new 
       possibilities. Resisting the truism that "music is always 
       political," Steingo elucidates a music that thrives on its
       its radically ambiguous relationship with politics, power,
       and the state"--Publisher's website.
