Description: "Resounding International Relations is a unique collection of exploratory essays by international relations scholars, and special guests, into past and contemporary issues in world politics through music. Contributors focus on the chosen music in itself but also in terms of the sociocultural and political economic context in which it emerged. Cases are taken from classical, popular, and "world" music in an interdisciplinary resounding of familiar themes in international relations research from a number of different perspectives."--Jacket.
