This book examines the significance of music in the construction of identities and post-ethnicity belonging in a globalized world. Tracing the diffusion of folk culture, Malet explores its effect in an educational context. With a focus on American, Celtic, Balkan and North African folk and traditional music, he suggests new ways to comprehend the role and transmission of folk culture and music. Touching on transnationalism, migration, and the role of diaspora, this book moves beyond current theoretical approaches and offers an original understanding of the role of folk culture and music in the reshaping of national and regional identities and citizenship in education.
