This book traces the particularities of music migration and tourism
in different global settings, and provides current, even new
perspectives for ethnomusicological research on globalizing musics
in transit. The dual focus on tourism and migration is central to
debates on globalization, and their examination-separately or
combined-offers a useful lens on many key questions about where
globalization is taking us: questions about identity and heritage,
commoditization, historical and cultural representation, hybridity,
authenticity and ownership, neoliberalism, inequality,
diasporization, the relocation of allegiances, and more. Moreover,
for the first time, these two key phenomena-tourism and
migration-are studied conjointly, as well as interdisciplinary, in
order to derive both parallels and contrasts. While taking diverse
perspectives in embracing the contemporary musical landscape, the
collection offers a range of research methods and theoretical
approaches from ethnomusicology, anthropology, cultural geography,
sociology, popular music studies, and media and communication. In
so doing, Musics in Transit provides a rich exemplification of the
ways that all forms of musical culture are becoming transnational
under post-global conditions, sustained by both global markets and
musics in transit, and to which both tourists and diasporic
cosmopolitans make an important contribution.
