Hip hop’s third space: Imagined community and the global hip hop nation (original) (raw)
The collection in Global Hip Hop Studies 2.1 explores the dynamic 'third space' of hip hop as a radical transcultural dialogue platform. Highlighting the dual nature of hip hop as a space for both liberation and coexistence, this issue presents various global perspectives including auto-ethnographic studies of breaking communities in Cuba and cultural critiques from Norway and the Netherlands. Overall, it emphasizes hip hop's role in reshaping identities and communities while redefining heritage and resistance in a global context.
