Aims & Scope

 

The main aims of the Journal of Popular Music Education are to define the parameters of the field and disciplines of its readership and contributors (especially with regard to other journals in popular music and music education), this being an emerging field of scholarship and practice. The other principal aim is to disseminate excellent critique and other forms of scholarship (e.g. phenomenological) in and related to the field. The journal has an inclusive, global reach. ‘Education’ and ‘popular music’ are terms that we expect to be stretched and problematized through rigorous examination from multiple international perspectives.
