> The journal would like to announce a call for 
> papers analyzing music from a social critical 
> point of view. In this context, ?musical 
> discourse? refers to the musical expression and 
> celebration of ideas and ?critical analysis of

> consider how music can be exploited in the 
> interest of powerful institutions and ideologies 
> ­ or subvert such institutions and ideologies.
>
> Papers are expected to include analysis of 
> relevant musical works. Consideration of the way 
> music combines with other semiotic modes in 
> musical performances and other public events, 
> and in films, television commercials, and so on, is strongly encouraged.
>
> Themes could include but are not restricted to:
>
> Political uses of music
> Music and power
