This book considers the intersection of music, politics and
identity, focusing on music (genres) across the world as a form of
political expression and protest, positive identity formations, but
also how the criminalisation, censuring, policing and prosecution
of musicians and fans can occur. All-encompassing in this book is
analyses of the unique contribution of music to various aspects of
human activity through an international, multi-disciplinary
approach. The book will serve as a starting point for scholars in
those areas where there has been an uncertain approach to this
subject, while those from disciplines with a more established canon
of music analysis will be informed about what each perspective can
offer. The approach is international and multi-disciplinary, with
the contributing authors focusing on a range of countries and the
differing social and cultural impact of music for both musicians
and fans. Academic disciplines can provide some explanations, but
the importance of the contribution of practitioners is vital for a
fully rounded understanding of the impact of music. Therefore, this
book takes the reader on a journey, beginning with theoretical and
philosophical perspectives on music and society, proceeding to an
analysis of laws and policies, and concluding with the use of music
by educational practitioners and the people with whom they work.
This book will appeal to students and scholars in subjects such as
sociology, criminology, cultural studies, and across the wider
social sciences. It will also be of interest to practitioners in
youth justice or those with other involvement in the criminal
justice system.
