[ecrea] Seminar: Music, politics and identity

SEMINAR: MUSIC, POLITICS AND IDENTITY

By focusing the various intersections between music, politics and 
identity this seminar aims to explore the ways in which musical practise 
and reception today can be thought to entail political significance or 
relevance. More specifically the seminar will address and discuss 
questions concerning the relationship between (live) popular music, the 
state and the marked, musical minorities and censorship, and the 
sociology of music in relation to education and political elites.
