Music has long played a prominent role in cultural diplomacy, but
until now no resource has comparatively examined policies that
shape how non-western countries use music for international
relations. Ethnomusicology and Cultural Diplomacy, edited by
scholars David G. Hebert and Jonathan McCollum, demonstrates
music's role in international relations worldwide. Specifically,
this book offers "insider" views from expert contributors writing
about music as a part of cultural diplomacy initiatives in
Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Iran, Syria, Japan, China, India, Vietnam,
Ethiopia, South Africa, and Nigeria. Unique features include the
book's emphasis on diverse legal frameworks, decolonial
perspectives, and cultural policies that serve as a basis for how
nations outside "the west" use music in their relationships with
Europe and North America.
