*Abstract:*

During the last half century, pop-rock music, with all its genres, styles,
scenes and trends has been localized and indigenized in most countries of
the world. By early 21st century, it has become the major cosmopolitan
musical culture of our times, epitomizing increased cultural similarity
around the globe, yet retaining much diversity and difference between
pop-rock styles and genres from different countries and regions. In this
lecture we will address several questions pertaining to the globalization
of pop-rock music. What is pop-rock music? How and why has it been adopted
by generations of musicians and fans across the world? What are the
cultural consequences of its localization in so many countries? The
discussion will be framed by concepts and insights from cultural sociology.
