    Music is not only significant to existing communities, such as those based on nationality or region, but also generates new communities. This is a central contention of Sounds French by historian Jonathyne Briggs, which investigates the production, mediation, and consumption of popular music in France during the increased globalization of culture between the 1950s and 1970s.
