Inhoud
European colonial domination has played a profound role in shaping the identities and cultures of the colonizers as well as of the colonized. In this course, students critically engage with the enduring effects of colonialism on today’s societies and musical cultures. The course reading list focuses on how various music practices are influenced by, revolt against, and perpetuate the power divide between “the West and the rest,” as well as power relations within Western societies.

Career orientation:
Training in written and oral presentation of research.

This course is for students in the MA Applied Musicology and RMA Musicology. The entrance requirements for Exchange Students will be checked by International Office and the Programme coordinator. You do not have to contact the Programme coordinator by yourself.
