SummaryMarc L. Moskowitz, an associate professor of anthropology at the University of South Carolina, provides valuable insight into notions of gender in Taiwan and East Asia generally, in his book `Cries of Joy, Songs of Sorrow: Chinese Pop Music and Its Cultural Connotations`. Moskowitz`s research for the book comprised mostly of interviews in Taipei and Shanghai of both laypeople and music industry professionals. Despite all of Shanghai`s history and contemporary modernity, Taiwanese Mandopop plays a vitally important role for the mainland`s most cosmopolitan city. Moskowitz gives a perceptive analysis of the role of pirated music in the mainland, where illegal copying can be seen as a creative act, a means to circumvent state censorship. Cries of Joy, Songs of Sorrow traces the recent history of popular music in Taiwan, but also points to the possibility of Taiwan`s further influence on the mainland in matters of culture and society.
