the world of music (new series) is an
international scholarly journal dedicated to reporting and reflecting
current theoretical perspectives on and research in the field of the
world’s music and dance.
While every issue is designed to focus on a specific topic, the world of music (new series)
does not confine its attention to any single region or methodological
approach. We publish original, and sometimes challenging, contributions
from all over the world, aimed at musicologists and musicians, dance
researchers, anthropologists, cultural studies and post-colonial studies
scholars, and others.
The articles contained in the world of music (new series)
are informed by a variety of theoretical perspectives but devoted to a
shared goal: understanding the musics of the world, their histories, and
their manifold contexts. It is our aim to generate a productive and
creative dialogue between music researchers in disparate locations and
contexts.
