- This 140,000-word book is the result of a sustained effort, begun in 2011, to analyse sound's involvement in public debates leading to reforms in social aid, hygiene, and crime management in Madrid (1850-1930). It explores for the first time a large collection of newspaper clippings, periodicals, local ordinances and archival sources (police records and workhouse files). This in-depth study of Madrid shows the impact of sound and music in areas of wide social concern. By comparing Madrid with other contexts, this book makes a substantial original contribution towards re-orienting the study of urban soundscapes and urban history across different geographies.
