Decolonizing Ethnography
In August 2011, ethnographers Carolina Alonso Bejarano and Daniel M. Goldstein began a research project on undocumented immigration in the United States by volunteering at a center for migrant workers in New Jersey. Two years later, Lucia López Juárez and Mirian A. Mijangos García—two local immigrant workers from Latin America—joined Alonso Bejarano and Goldstein as research assistants and quickly became equal partners for whom ethnographic practice was inseparable from activism. In Decolonizing Ethnography the four coauthors offer a methodological and theoretical reassessment of social science research, showing how it can function as a vehicle for activism and as a tool for marginalized people to theorize their lives. Tacking between personal narratives, ethnographic field notes, an original bilingual play about workers' rights, and examinations of anthropology as a discipline, the coauthors show how the participation of Mijangos García and López Juárez transformed the project's activist and academic dimensions. In so doing, they offer a guide for those wishing to expand the potential of ethnography to serve as a means for social transformation and decolonization.
Polypoetry 30 years 1987 – 2017
This book aims to draw maps about Polypoetry manifestations around Europe and Americas. It gathers scholars and artists who dedicated their work for understanding the avant-garde expressions in print, sound, and visual languages, as well as to demonstrate how the experimentalism affects the world in a political and aesthetical perspective. In order to put different ideas in a framework, the first part of this book ("European Maps of Polypoetry") brings a debate about the space of Polypoetry in relationship with other avant-garde manifestations. The second one ("Intertwining voices") drives our attention to the Americas, focusing on how visual and digital poetry, music, and festivals embraced Polypoetry ideas, in a way to build a broaden art network between Europe and the Americas.

Jazz y todo lo demás
Los diferentes capítulos que componen el cuerpo de este libro trazan un recorrido espacio-temporal, descendente, desde una mirada cenital inicial que se deriva en frecuencias ondulantes desde la llegada del jazz a Europa, bajando en espiral hacia el surgimiento y sofisticación de las tecnologías electrónicas y digitales, asi como su impacto en la globalización de la industria musical, hasta concluir en los clubes y bares que componen la escena jazzística más cercana del autor, la de su ciudad, Sevilla. Jazz y todo lo demás abona en la comprensión del jazz como música global, sus materializaciones en diferentes lugares del mundo, su apropiación por músicos de otras culturas en contextos sociales diferentes al de su origen. Suma así a la reflexion de la diversidad y extensión de este género musical en su difusión por las diferentes escenas locales (Nueva York, Cuba y Latinoamérica; África y Asia; España y Suecia) y lo que estas han generado en riqueza y variedad a lo largo y ancho de todo el planeta.

Global Jazz
Global Jazz: A Research and Information Guide is an annotated bibliography that explores the global impact of jazz, detailing the evolution of the African American musical tradition as it has been absorbed, transformed, and expanded across the world’s historical, political, and social landscapes. With more than 1,300 annotated entries, this vast compilation covers a broad range of subjects, people, and geographic regions as they relate to interdisciplinary research in jazz studies. The result is a vivid demonstration of how cultures from every corner of the globe have situated jazz—often regarded as America’s classical music—within and beyond their own musical traditions, creating new artistic forms in the process. Global Jazz: A Research and Information Guide presents jazz as a common musical language in a global landscape of diverse artistic expression.
