‘We all have to do our bit
Over a decade has passed since the publication and enactment of the first National Literacy and Numeracy Strategy (NLNS; Department of Education and Skills. 2011. Literacy and Numeracy for Learning and Life: The National Strategy to Improve Literacy and Numeracy among Children and Young People 2011–2020. Dublin: Department of Education and Skills). This paper provides insights into the reality of its enactment across a range of primary and post-p…
Depolicing in Chicago
The release of video showing a Chicago Police Department (CPD) officer fatally shooting 17-year-old Laquan McDonald resulted in widespread outrage and scrutiny of the CPD. This study examines whether the video’s release influenced arrest and traffic stop rates in Chicago. It adds to the existing depolicing literature through its focus on the CPD’s specialized units contrasted with officers assigned to patrol. The results indicate that arrest rate…
Norwegian Nationalism and the Ethnographic ‘Village’
Kongolandsbyen was an ‘ethnographic village’ staged in Oslo as part of Norway’s Jubilee Exhibition of 1914. The ‘village’ housed and displayed a troupe of eighty Senegalese performers including musicians playing kora, balafon, and other instruments. Examining music’s performance and reception in Kongolandsbyen demonstrates how colonialist practices and beliefs influenced even European nations, such as Norway, that were nominally non-imperialist. …
Literacy in the disciplines
Kīkā Kila
John W. Troutman’s new book is a history of global cultural transformation and appropriation centered on a specific musical instrument: the Hawaiian steel guitar, or kīkā kila. By employing kīkā kila as a case study, the book sheds light on the history and politics of Hawai‘i, from sovereign kingdom to fiftieth state, and the dramatic way in which an obscure, local musical tradition became fundamental to the development of popular music around th…
The Barbarian Principle: Merleau-Ponty, Schelling, and the Question of Nature
The Screamers
While screaming during popular music performances (at least loudly amplified ones) has become unremarkable and even expected, the mid-twentieth-century United States witnessed a series of debates over the appropriateness and significance of screaming. These debates, fraught with moral judgment and often open panic, focused on issues central to American popular music: sexuality, race, class, and the rights and responsibilities of the individual. T…

Pops
Terry Teachout modestly describes Pops as a “synthesis” of other scholars’ research (p. 380). It is true that Louis Armstrong's fascinating story, from his impoverished childhood in New Orleans to his incredible achievement as a jazz innovator to his later success as a pop star and movie actor, has been covered in whole or in part by many other works, including James Lincoln Collier's controversial “psychobiography” (p. 374), Louis Armstrong: An …
Tear down the walls
While the notion of the 'rock revolution' of the 1960s has by now become commonplace, scholars have rarely addressed the racial implications of this purported revolution. This article examines a notorious 1968 blackface performance by Grace Slick, lead singer of Jefferson Airplane, to shed light on a significant tendency in 1960s rock: white musicians casting themselves as political revolutionaries by enacting an idealised vision of African Ameri…

The contributors come from Britain, the USA, Germany and Denmark as well as from the Netherlands, and their interests range from economic and political history to the history of the book and the history of art. The thread binding the contributions together is that o…

The traveller through the regions of the Nile and the Ganges, if he passes by the stagnant ponds the currents have dug out and abandoned, will see lotuses rising out of the slime and ascending through the muddy water, leaving the surface behind and climbing up into the air, and opening their buds, bursts of colour spurning the touch of the water and dirt that bears them. If such a flower grew only in the beautiful places appropriate to it, it mig…
