Call for Proposals
Inaugurated in Seoul 2011, the East Asian Regional Association of the International Musicological Society (IMS-EA) is pleased to announce its 2nd conference and invite all music researchers working in/on the region (including nonmembers) to submit proposals with the theme:MUSICS IN THE SHIFTING GLOBAL ORDER
Within the shifting global order, East Asia has been rapidly transforming its status from an object of study to an active producer and promoter of knowledge. While the “West” has established itself since the waves of European colonization as the generator of theories and methods as well as the frame of reference, postcolonial and post-Cold War interactions between East Asia and the West have admitted mutual transformations. Music, a human phenomenon that is unifying yet alienating, transcendental yet mundane, stands inevitably at this critical juncture. Particularly, this conference aims to address these issues:
Keynote Speaker: Professor E. Taylor ATKINS, Northern Illinois University, author of Primitive Selves: Koreana in the Japanese Colonial Gaze, 1910-45 (2010) and Blue Nippon: Authenticating Jazz in Japan (2001).
