Abstract

ABSTRACT As music remains one of the most popular activities of everyday life, this paper builds on critical and popular geopolitics to introduce music as a key endeavour in teaching such topics. The paper attempts to go beyond scrutiny of the popular music by connecting it with the historical strings of geopolitical evolution and their current re-representation. It communicates how music may assist students in understanding geopolitics. Surprised at first by music’s relation with geopolitics, students can delve into more complex questions that allow them to scrutinize the forces, institutions and theoretical frameworks that shape geopolitics. Mediated by music, teaching may provide a way to deconstruct geopolitical imaginations and empower students to reflect beyond the texts, and popular contexts.
