Music of Israel Israel as a country is rather new, established in 1948 as an official Jewish state. The global spread of rock music in the 1960s affected this tradition as well; the new folk music took on the characteristics of rock and was accompanied by electric organ, drums, guitar, and bass guitar. Ofra Haza, born in Israel to a family originally from Yemen, was a prime example of the fusion of musics that create the contemporary Israeli musical sound. www.sbgmusic.com /html/teacher/reference/cultures/israel.html   (931 words)

South Africa Racial and ethnic strife between the black majority and the white minority have played a large part in the country's history and politics. The National Party began introducing the policy of apartheid after winning the general election of 1948; however, it was the same party under the leadership of F.W. de Klerk who started to dismantle it in 1990 after a long struggle by the black majority, as well as many white, coloured and Indian South Africans. This can be seen in differences in food, music, and dance among each of separate groups. creekin.net /n171-south-africa.html   (3561 words)

Music of Turkey Arabesk stems from Raks Sarki (more often known as belly-dancing music) and was popularized beginning in the 1940s by Kaydar Tatliyay and other performers, leading to a 1948 ban on Arabic language music. Turkish classical music was the country's best-known musical export at the time, but was considered too Arab by Kemal Atatürk's government. By 1976, sanat (a form of classical art music) had undergone a renaissance and the State Conservatoire in Istanbul was founded to give classical musicians the same support as folk musicians. www.worldwidewebfind.com /encyclopedia/en/wikipedia/m/mu/music_of_turkey.html   (6370 words)

RealClearPolitics David Hackett Fischer in Albion’s Seed describes the diaspora of the Scots Irish from the Lowlands and Highlands of Scotland and Ulster in Northern Ireland: these were fighters, proud men and proud women, lusty and loyal, fond of song (think country music) and ever ready to fight to defend their honor. Dewey in 1944 did not belittle the campaign in North Africa that Rick Atkinson’s recent book shows was riddled with mistakes, and Dewey in 1948 did not predict defeat and disaster for the Berlin airlift that was ongoing during the campaign and whose success at the time seemed anything but obvious. Cheney told how President Harry Truman reshaped American foreign policy in the years after World War II and prosecuted the Cold War and was supported, in the domestically bitter 1948 campaign, by Thomas Dewey, and how Truman’s policies were followed by his successors, Republican Dwight Eisenhower and Democrat John Kennedy. www.realclearpolitics.com /Commentary/com-9_2_04_MB.html   (1750 words)
