- Haddon's 240-page monograph What is Post-Punk? combines musical analysis with analyses of the rock music press and theoretical work drawn from a range of disciplines to understand the development and ontology of genre in popular music. The scope of the journalistic materials examined, and the musical examples, covers a five-year period (1977-1982), focusing primarily on the UK and the USA. Haddon’s work is not limited to the analysis of post-punk as a genre but, by necessity, engages with punk-adjacent genres such as disco and reggae. Her work should therefore be understood as a relational approach to this music-historical period.
