Glasba brez meja:: raziskovalni primer o novih metodologijah poučevanja glasbe na dunajskih osnovnih in srednjih šolah
This article presents some of the results of a research project which the author conducted between 2015 and 2018. The influences of the music lessons which were offered within the framework of this research project is the main subject of this article. It shows how children with and without migrant backgrounds can improve their bi- and multi-musical identities in their transcultural spaces through these music lessons. Providing an insight into possibilities of intercultural music education in Viennese primary schools is the central aim of this paper.Članek predstavlja nekatere rezultate projekta, ki ga je avtorica izvajala med letoma 2015 in 2018. Glavna tema prispevka je vpliv pouka glasbe, kateremu so učenci prisostvovali v okviru dotičnega raziskovalnega projekta. Članek pokaže, kako lahko otroci – z migrantskim ozadjem ali brez – s poukom glasbe okrepijo svoje dvo- ali večglasbene identitete v medkulturnih prostorih. Ključni namen pričujočega članka je predstaviti vpoglede v različne možnosti medkulturne glasbene vzgoje na dunajskih osnovnih šolah
Dynamics of alliances and isolation of asylum seekers in Italian reception centers. What music can tell about?
The crisis of the reception of irregular migrants crossing the Mediterranean to reach Europe became a prominent issue in 2015, prompting the extension of the action research project I had just started in Cremona and its surroundings on music and migration to asylum seekers. The organisation of music workshops in extraordinary reception centres, with the assistance of my students and former students, was undertaken to address the following research question: Is the music they listen to, the music they eventually play and compose, a means to isolate themselves from others or a means to create some kind of communality, and if so, how and why? The workshops that my students and former students carried out with my collaboration between 2015 and 2017, and the fieldwork that I’m still doing myself, have enabled the collection of a substantial amount of data for analysis. In this contribution, I will commence with a concise delineation of the Italian reception system.
This will be followed by a reflection on the potential to conceptualise the situations we dealt with through the prism of minority studies. The subsequent section will present the emergent findings concerning musical behaviour in the reception centres where workshops and fieldwork have been conducted. The concluding remarks will address the implications of listening to music and composing among asylum seekers in Italian reception centres with respect to the dynamics of isolation and aggregation
Ethnomusicology Matters
This book gathers international voices from the field of ethnomusicology discussing the socio-political relevance of the discipline. The articles draw from contemporary discourses that take into account the role of music and dance in shaping social and political realities. An important field connected to political relevance is heritage, either in connection with the UNESCO or with archives. Ontologies of indigenous groups and their relevance in knowledge production is discussed in ethnomusicology nowadays as well as the possibilities of decolonising the discipline. Two articles from ethno-choreology explore dance from the gender perspective and in the post-socialist political structures. Different approaches from applied ethnomusicology deal with social justice, participatory dialogical practice, and the socio-political relevance of performance. Forced migration is seen as comprehensive topic for future ethnomusicology. The contents of the book mirror influential discourses of ethnomusicology today that will definitely shape the future development of the discipline

What to do with conspiracy theories?: Insights from contemporary Turkey
This article presents ethnographic insights into the everyday lives of people who circulate conspiratorial narratives through an ethnographic study of ultranationalist men in contemporary Turkey. Drawing on the findings of this research, the author suggests that conspiratorial discourses should be examined not solely in terms of their (anti‐)truth qualities but as social practices through which masculine subjectivities and socialities are engendered. The author then explores how the circulation of conspiratorial narratives forges agency and political subjectivity for the men involved, while also inducing sociopolitical effects such as vigilantism and paramilitary violence. This article contends that through the circulation of conspiratorial narratives and everyday engagements with vigilantism and extralegal violence, the men reconfigure sovereignty and the way that the state operates in contemporary Turkey. The findings of this research suggest that the focus should be moved away from the epistemological shortcomings of conspiratorial narratives or strategies to debunk them – such as fact‐checking – which presume that exposure of ‘the truth’ would lead to the dissolution of ‘untruthful’ conspiracies. Rather, the author suggests that researchers attend to the particular forms conspiracies take in concrete situations, how they mould political subjectivities and social groups and reconfigure the ways that the state operates alongside the law in other similar settings. </p
