Tracing bachata's rise to popularity and the implications of its development
Like rap in the United States, bachata began as a music of the poor and dispossessed. This book traces the impact of political upheaval and rural migrations on the development of bachata and the Dominican music industry. It also analyzes the changing attitudes about bachata and its principal musical competitor, merengue.
