[Carlos Palombini]

 Final Call for Submissions

Music, Culture and Globalisation (Annual Conference of the British Forum for
Ethnomusicology 2009)

Submission deadline: 30 November 2008

The Annual Conference of the BFE will be held from 16 - 19 April 2009, and
hosted by the Popular Music Studies Unit at Liverpool John Moores
University, UK. This 4-day conference seeks to generate new perspectives and
understandings on the interrelatedness of music, culture and globalisation
through stimulating interdisciplinary and intercultural theoretical
dialogues, and thereby moving beyond those conceptualisations that are
already established in ethnomusicology and other music-related disciplines.
To this end, various guest speakers will be engaged to contribute a range of
different theoretical perspectives on a more contemporary understanding of
music and global culture. The keynotes will be delivered by Professor John
Tomlinson, Professor of Cultural Sociology and authority on the cultural
aspects of the globalisation process and Professor Timothy D. Taylor,
Professor of Ethnomusicology who has published widely on music and
globalisation.

Submissions are now invited on any aspect of the theme with papers that seek
to explore newer issues relating to this subject, including, but by no means
limited to, the following: (1) Musical traditions in transformation; (2)
Music, place and identity; (3) New centres and peripheries?; (4) Music,
mediation and tourism; (5) New approaches to ethnographic enquiry and
research methods. Abstracts (approximately 300 words) for paper
presentations lasting 20 minutes should be submitted by 30 November 2008.
Film shows and performances may also be proposed, as may pre-formed panels
or workshop sessions, for which a longer abstract with named speakers should
be submitted (approximately 1,000 words).

The Annual BFE Conference will be held in Liverpool (UK), a buzzing musical
city that has just celebrated its 800th birthday in 2007 and continues
celebrations as European Capital of Culture 2008. Liverpool is renowned for
its vibrant music culture and the Beatles, football, maritime heritage, arts
and culture, shopping, and exciting nightlife, and there will be time during
the conference to explore its fabulous attractions. There will be a
conference dinner and party on Saturday evening, and a themed night and a
range of live music performances are also planned.
