Abstract

A contribution that music education provides society with is its making of education and culture of peace. In this paper we analyze the theoretical assumptions that research in both areas has in common nowadays. A catalog of shared categories is proposed; the development of them entails a strengthening of their transversal meanings, while describing how the convergence between the two subjects constitutes an emerging topic of research. Besides, an explanation of the political implications that are discovered in the curricular relegation that they have suffered in the last years thanks to the neoliberal policies is offered, together with a proposal of epowerment from their own resources.
