- Title
Back to the Neighborhood: Musical Contributions to the Study of Locality in Latin American Cities.
- Abstract
This article is an attempt to build an initial methodological framework for the study of the relationship between space and popular or traditional music in Latin American cities. The main argument posits that locality in Latin America can be constructed by music through the development of rootedness and sense of place—via elective belonging—to create place in a given time and space (place making). The article explains the concepts of place, rootedness, and sense of place; introduces the idea of stability and instability in the appropriation of space; and proposes that festivalization and musical scene are the unifying aspects of the debate. The conclusion offers elements to build a theoretical and methodological proposal that facilitates the analysis of the relationship between music and space in this large global region.
