| dc.description.abstract | This thesis explores the phenomenon of music and conflict, both as generator and resolver. The study examines forty-seven observations of where music has occurred as a significant cultural marker to conflict. The observations occurred across the globe and throughout history and ranged from violent conflicts such as the French Revolution to non-violent conflicts like the Velvet Revolution. The data was collected, coded and analyzed statistically to determine what variables might be important in understanding this social phenomenon. This thesis is designed to be a reference, resource and starting point for people interested in understanding the factors that may contribute to successful and musically artistic resolutions to conflict. | |
