Back to work – Volume! special issue (M. Perrenoud & P. Bataille dir.)

Volume 18(1) “Back to work”

This issue of the French journal Volume! is dedicated to music as work. In the history of social sciences, it is well known that Howard Becker’s early work on the activity of “dance musicians” in late 1940’s Chicago was both a study on deviance and the analysis of an occupational group and of a social world. Today, it is necessary to consider more seriously the professional, material, and economic dimensions of practices that are obviously “artistic”, and that also unfold in a contrasted and very unequal labor and employment market. The six papers in this issue were written by members of the Working in Music international research network. The authors, who come from a variety of European countries (Greece, Switzerland, Great Britain, France), mobilize various fields as well as a common corpus of references, showing how dynamic contemporary research on musical work is.
