Musik und Politik (Seminar)
Dozent/in: Monika Schoop
Termin:
wöchentlich | Mittwoch | 10:15 - 11:45 | 07.04.2025 - 11.07.2025 | C 16.207 Musik | C16.207 ...
Inhalt: In this course, we will investigate the complex interplay between music and politics, focusing on selected musical examples from various geographical and historical contexts. We will explore how music intersects with politics, examining themes as wide-ranging as music's role in electoral politics, party politics, populism, and far-right movements. We will further examine music in the context of social movements, and in particular as a form of resistance against repressive regimes. Focusing on a wide range of case studies, we will address questions such as: - How do politicians use music to promote themselves and their political agendas? - How is music employed to mobilize people? - How does it function as a tool for protest? How can music create spaces for free expression and dissent? And last but not least the overarching question: What makes music political? Participants are encouraged to contribute examples of their own choice to the in-class discussions.

wöchentlich | Mittwoch | 12:15 - 13:45 | 28.05.2025 - 09.07.2025 | C 14.102 b Seminarraum
Inhalt: This seminar has a focus on a) music, communication, and both independent and state-provided media/spaces, such as (underground and rather official) radio, youth centers/festivals, fanzines/magazines... b) long-time and ephemeral audio/audiovisual archives: songs/records, documentaries,... We will look at musical practices in the following countries/areas: the Czech Republic + Slovakia (formerly Czechoslovakia), Hungary, the former GDR (East Germany), Romania, several member states of the Soviet Union with a focus on the baltic states such as Latvia (formerly LSSR), Belarus (formerly BSSR) and Russia, as well as Bulgaria, and Poland - among them directly (former) neighboring countries. Theoretically, we will discuss cultural narrations of the "Ostblock" and reflect on respective and collective cultural and political heritage(s). We will do this with an understanding of (im)material culture: What has remained left from the palaces for the youth, and for which concept of youth have they existed before, actually? What has rised from the ruins? Please check the seminar plan for topics of the single sessions.
