- This 110,000-word book marks the culmination of five years of research. It presents a substantial re-examination of both historical and contemporary relationships between music and politics, overhauling understanding of how these fields interact by reappraising key concepts such as power, protest, resistance, subversion, propaganda and ideology. The book evaluates a wide range of interdisciplinary perspectives, including engagement with political theory, sociology and philosophy as well as musicology and ethnomusicology. Its critical insights are the product of an extensive exploration of a broad array of cultures, texts and practices from the medieval period to the present.
