Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology, Volume XI, features thirty-one papers analyzing global influences on the music of Latin America. The papers were prepared by a diverse group of scholars from eleven countries whose views are shaped by their specific local experiences in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Columbia, Cuba, Japan, Mexico, Nigeria, Peru, Puerto Rico, and the United States. Among the topics addressed in this volume are the historical understanding of globalization in Latin America through the concept of "mestizaje," the envisioning of Latin America as a global nexus involving Amerindians, Europeans, Africans, and even East Asians, and the clarification of the effects of intercultural and intercontinental movements on local traditional and popular musical forms. Originally presented at the conference "Musical Cultures of Latin America: Global Effects, Past and Present," at the University of California, Los Angeles, many of the ideas address processes of globalization that are significant far beyond the borders of Latin America.
