Music RefugeLiving Asylum through Music\nAuthor(s): Ailbhe Kenny\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Oxford University Press Inc, United States\nImprint: Oxford University Press Inc\nISBN-13: 9780197780138, 978-0197780138\nSynopsis\nForced migration has led to the creation of unique spaces within varying contexts where music is made, shared, and experienced. Music Refuge charts over eight years of research to uncover the musical lives of those seeking asylum and refuge in 'host' countries. This book explores how migration, mobility, and emplacement become entangled through musical interactions, focusing on how people seeking asylum create musical spaces. Through music, asylum seekers discover alternate forms of identity that resist categorizations, nationalisms, monocultures, and fixed geographies. Moving away from refugee and asylum-seeking tropes that rely on narratives of victimhood, Music Refuge foregrounds agency and the claiming of space while living within and through asylum seeking.
