The Routledge Companion to Diasporic Jazz Studies recognizes the proliferation of jazz as global music in the 21st century. It illustrates the multi-vocality of contemporary jazz studies, combining local narratives, global histories, and cultural criticism. It rests on the argument that diasporic jazz is not a passive, second-hand reflection of music originating in the US, but possesses its own integrity, vitality, and distinctive range of identities. This companion reveals the contradictions of cultural globalization from which diasporic jazz cultures emerge, through 45 chapters within seven thematic parts:

What is Diasporic Jazz?
Histories and Counter-Narratives
Making, Disseminating, and Consuming Diasporic Jazz
Culture, Politics, and Ideology
Communities and Distinctions
Presenting and Representing Diasporic Jazz
Challenges and New Directions

The Routledge Companion to Diasporic Jazz Studies traces how cultural dynamics related to "race", coloniality, gender, and politics traverse and shape jazz. Employing a cross section of approaches to the study of diasporic jazz as eloquently showcased by the entries, this book seeks to challenge the dominant jazz narratives through championing a more all-encompassing, multi-paradigmatic alternative. Bringing together contributions from authors all over the world, this volume is a vital resource for scholars of jazz, as well as professionals in the music industries and those interested in learning about the cultural and historical origins of jazz.

Ádám Havas is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie postdoctoral researcher at the University of Barcelona (2022-2024) and a member of The Center for the Study of Culture, Politics, and Society (CECUPS) in the University’s Sociology Department. From October 2024 he will be an international fellow at the Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut Essen (KWI). Bruce Johnson currently holds honorary professorships in various departments, including Music, Cultural History, Communications and Media at the University of Glasgow and the University of Turku (Finland); and at the University of Technology Sydney and the University of New South Wales in Australia. David Horn was the first Director of the Institute of Popular Music (IPM) at the University of Liverpool.
