What is Reassessing Genre in Post-1945 Music about?

This article critiques the common notion that genres declined in relevance under modernism. It argues that genre categories have continued playing a decisive role in the production, circulation, and reception of post-1945 art music. An alternative theory of genre is proposed that draws on actor-network theory to show how genres are not fixed but shape understanding of modernist music in complex ways.
