Is it ever acceptable to "borrow" culturally inspired ideas? Who
has ownership over intangible culture? What role does power
inequality play? These questions are often at the center of heated
public debates around cultural appropriation, with new
controversies breaking seemingly every day. Cultural Appropriation
in Fashion and Entertainment offers a sociological perspective on
the appropriation of race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and
religion embedded in clothing, textiles, jewelry, accessories,
hairstyles and tattoos, as well as in entertainment, such as K-pop,
Bhangra, and hip-hop. By providing a range of global perspectives
on the adoption, adaptation, and application of both tangible and
intangible cultural objects, Kawamura and de Jong help move the
conversation beyond simply criticizing designers and creators to
encourage nuanced discussion and raise awareness of diverse
cultures in the creative industries.
