About the Journal

This journal publishes research and scholarship on  international popular musics, also known as World Music, Global Pop, World Beat or, more recently, World Music 2.0, providing  a forum to explore the manifestations and impacts of post-globalizing trends, processes, and dynamics surrounding these musics today. It adopts an open-minded perspective, including in its scope any local popularized musics of the world, commercially available music of non-Western origin, musics of ethnic minorities, and contemporary fusions or collaborations with local ‘traditional’ or ‘roots’ musics with Western pop and rock musics.
