摘要:The music education profession has a long and not always inspiring history of embracing
fashions and trends, only to drop them when the next comes along. Judging from recent activity,
the topic of social justice¡ªa topic that has long occupied marginal status in the profession¡¯s
collective consciousness¡ªmay be emerging as a more broadly acknowledged concern.
However, if it to rise beyond ¡°flavour of the month¡± status and have a durable, transformative
effect on the profession, thoughtful foundational work is required. Our objective for this issue of
ACT is to undertake some of that foundational work: to explore some of the theoretical/practical 1
grounds issues implicated by concerns for social justice and how (or whether?) they pertain to
music education.
