Music, Power and Inequity (MPI) is an integrative research project rooted in musicology. The project conducts research on music in relation to societal power struggles and social inequalities. A central part of the project's work involves the bringing together of findings from various other projects through comparative and synthesising analyses. In this way the project aims to identify patterns, develop concepts and analytical perspectives, and formulate new research questions concerning power in musical life.
