The series aims to provide a framework for reporting on and analysing the linguistic outcomes of globalization and localization.

In particular, it looks at how such artists form "diasporas" which in turn create networks of cultural exchange inside the EU and with third countries. It provides examples of these activities in three broad diaspora groups of African, Balkan and Turkish background.

Pour trois étapes de la réflexion, voir par exemple ESCOBAR (1991), GOEDEFROIT &REVÉRET (2007), GRILLO &S TIRRAT (1997). 2. Les Participatory Poverty Assessments (PPAS) sont ainsi mis en place par la Banque Mondiale et le FMI au milieu des années 1990 (POTTIER 2003 : 24-25). Voir notamment POTTIER ET AL. (2003) sur le rôle de(s) « savoir(s) local(aux) » dans les actions de développement. 3. Ou encore « tourisme responsable », « solidaire », « équitable », « alternatif », etc. Certains auteurs emploient chacun de ces termes dans une perspective différente (ZYSBERG 2004 : 19), d'autres les envisagent au contraire comme pouvant être utilisés comme des synonymes (CHABLOZ 2007 : 33). C'est cette seconde position que nous adopterons dans le présent article. Voir également E. COHEN (2002) pour un bilan sur ce rapport entre tourisme et « sustainability ».

All nine original articles, including our own, engage with broader questions of how new modes of mobility and sociality are borne out of the social, cultural, historical and political interfaces between migration and music. Through a transnational, comparative and multilevel approach to the relationship between migration, movement and music, this special issue focuses on the aesthetic intersections between the local and the global, and between agency and identity. By taking music as its specific focus, the issue seeks to contribute to ongoing theoretical and methodological debates within migration and diaspora studies, including those related to transnational networks, globalization and cultural flows.
