This edited volume is a global music history project that refuses to shy away from the geopolitical realities of a global musicology. This edited volume is a global music history project that refuses to shy away from the geopolitical realities of a global musicology. With an ironic undertone to the ‘elsewhere’ the book's title, contributors to this volume grapple with the ethical and democratising potentials of musicology's recent "global turn." The aim of this volume is to make room for voices from outside of the Euro-American mainstream, in order to create a material difference to the frequent scarcity of non-Western scholars in the Euro-American conception of global music history. By bringing a small group of scholars’ work into a more readily available space given by a sizable Anglo-American publisher, the book aims to enable more multidirectional exchanges and connections to take place in the future. Amanda Hsieh is Assistant Professor of Musicology at Durham University (UK). Vera Wolkowicz is Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow at École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (FR).
