Appel à contributions de la revue International Journal of Music Mediation pour son numéro « Music Mediation and the Socio-Ecological Transition ».

Rédaction en chef : Axel Petri-Preis (University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna)

« The literature already highlights the ability of artists (Paquet 2021; Paquet and Rouleau 2022) and especially musicians (Adams et Donin 2022; König 2024) to convey the narrative and imaginary themes of ecological transition in new ways. The idea that arts and culture – conceptualized as the fourth pillar of sustainable development alongside economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability in the UN Agenda 21 for culture – can serve ecological, environmental, climatic, and sustainable development causes is well-established (Ardenne 2019). Performers and composers engage audiences in a form of aesthetic mediation (Caune 2018) that prompts reflection on human activity as a primary factor in transforming our living environment. Concepts such as the Anthropocene (Benner et al. 2022) or the Capitalocene (Moore 2016; Haraway 2016) permeate these works, emphasizing the role of individuals in recent environmental transformations. Thus, ecological transition is recognized as socio-ecological, acknowledging human influence on the deterioration of our ecosystem, climate change, and biodiversity loss. »
