This book studies the different roles that jazz played in Poland in
the course of the 20th century, from its implementation in the
1920s, through World War II to the Third Polish Republic. The
author, sociologist and jazz musician, depicts how jazz was
forbidden under Stalin, accepted and even supported in the Polish
People's Republic and then welcomed in the open market of the Third
Republic. The discussion of jazz in this work covers several
levels: political, symbolic, cultural, and economic. The main point
of the presented analysis are changes within jazz music itself,
within the community of jazz musicians and relations between the
field of jazz and the field of politics.
