Beskrivning

This book contributes to a future-focused, environmentally responsible, relationally and socially engaged, ecological discourse of music education professionalism. The authors in this edited volume engage with effecting change by interrogating fundamental disciplinary values and imagining possibilities for music and music education to be a resource and catalyst for change. Together, the chapters address two interrelated questions: What kind of music education will survive societal and planetary transitions, and perhaps more importantly, what kind of music education can impact society amidst this transition? The axes of transformation suggested by Arturo Escobar (recommunalisation; relocalisation and strengthening autonomies; depatriarcialisation, de-racialisation and decolonialisation; and re-earthing) frame the book as a whole, while individual chapters focus on themes such as civic imagination, climate justice, ecological thinking, gender equality, innovative pedagogy, migration, music heritage, transdisciplinary collaboration, transindividualism, and professional responsibility. The richness of the perspectives presented will inspire readers to recognise possible arenas for change in their own contexts.
