Music education has historically had a tense relationship with
social justice. One the one hand, educators concerned with music
practices have long preoccupied themselves with ideas of open
participation and the potentially transformative capacity that
musical interaction fosters. On the other hand, they have often
done so while promoting and privileging a particular set of musical
practices, traditions, and forms of musical knowledge, which has in
turn alienated and even excluded many children from music education
opportunities. The Oxford Handbook of Social Justice in Music
Education provides a comprehensive overview and scholarly analyses
of the major themes and issues relating to social justice in
musical and educational practice worldwide. The first section of
the handbook conceptualizes social justice while framing its
pursuit within broader contexts and concerns. Authors in the
succeeding sections of the handbook fill out what social justice
entails for music teaching and learning in the home, school,
university, and wider community as they grapple with cycles of
injustice that might be perpetuated by music pedagogy. The
concluding section of the handbook offers specific practical
examples of social justice in action through a variety of
educational and social projects and pedagogical practices that will
inspire and guide those wishing to confront and attempt to
ameliorate musical or other inequity and injustice. Consisting of
42 chapters by authors from across the globe, the handbook will be
of interest to anyone who wishes to better understand what social
justice is and why its pursuit in and through music education
matters.
