Recenzii
Teitelbaum is an ethnomusicologist who has adopted a refreshingly non-adversarial, multi-year, 'collaborative' ethnographic approach to interacting with and gathering information on his subjects. In a field in which far too many researchers violate normal scholarly standards by embracing a highly partisan and indeed overtly hostile activist posture towards their subjects of study rather than a relatively detached, disinterested or empathetic posture, this is to be welcomed.
elaborate and intimate ... Benjamin R. Teitelbaum has initiated a dialogue on what constitutes the new nationalism. If we are willing to engage in this dialogue with him, we need to step out of the view of politics as merely concerning the game of party politics, and widen our horizons to consider the wider societal implications of the new Nordic right nationalism. This move means realizing that populism is not merely about brutish skinheads, and that it operates in subtle ways not alien to -- but conversely ingrained in -- the political mainstream.
Lions of the North is a deftly crafted and immensely captivating account of how music plays a key part in the inner workings of Nordic radical nationalist groups. By convincingly arguing for, and consistently applying a "collaborative" approach to ethnographic fieldwork, Teitelbaum avoids any notions of underlying advocacy, a tendency which characterizes many studies on extremist groups. This fearless and thoughtful approach transcends existing scholarship, opening for innovative perspectives that challenge us to see the motivations of radical groups in a new light...Teitelbaum's exceptional, but well-argued approach to fieldwork is challenging and provocative, and is poised to spark discussions among a wide array of scholars.
Teitelbaum's vivid and highly readable documentation of the Scandinavian far right music scene encourages us to take racist subcultures, their international links, and the sheer creative vitality of their racism and xenophobia seriously as a strategy for perpetuating dreams of national-racial rebirth in a democratic age.
Lions of the North is a very timely book, which captures the rise of Sweden's radical nationalism as the music of the right is transforming diverse political groups into a widespread anti-immigrant movement. Teitelbaum's penetrating, often disturbing, analysis of European musical politics today is critical reading.
Lions of the North is an entirely unparalleled study.
Exploring crucial, yet often overlooked dimensions of neo-nationalism through the lens of music--such as its emotional, embodied, and gendered components--Lions of the North is a significant contribution to scholarship. The exceptionally well-written and nuanced book sheds unique light on musical politics. It is essential reading for all who want to better understand the rise, character, and appeal of radical nationalism in the Nordic countries and beyond.
Benjamin Teitelbaum's Lions of the North is an unflinching assessment of modern Nordic radical nationalism seen through the lens of its fragmented musical affinities, subsequent to the decline of the white power punk scene that once unified it as a cultural space. In privileging the views of radical nationalists the book provides the reader a unique vantage point... putting the greatest advantages and disadvantages of ethnographic methodology itself in stark relief. Lions of the North should be required reading for any scholar of nationalism and any student of ethnography.
Teitelbaum explores with elegance the differences between nationalist factions today ... A brilliant approach [studying the far right through its music] ... During a time when attempts to explain the growth of the extreme right seem only to point to the failures of the left, it is uplifting to read such a methodical account from the inside of the extreme right.
Teitelbaum's analyses of internal discussions about the appropriateness of using foreign music in nationalist activism are consistently fascinating.
