DESCRIPTION:Globalization and internationalization are significant factors
  in today’s world and have an impact on music education. So far\, no con
 cept in music education has addressed this topic comprehensively. This pre
 sentation\, which is based on a book published by Indiana University Press
  in 2018\, offers a conceptual framework helping to understand\, evaluate 
 and shape internationalization and globalization regarding music education
  in a culturally sensitive way. It presents a new vision for transforming 
 music education internationally in terms of a united and inclusive\, yet d
 iverse global music education community. By acknowledging different music 
 education and research cultures\, this vision challenges the current state
  of international music education and higher education. It emphasizes the 
 need for developing a pluralistic mode of thinking in music education\, wh
 ile underlining our shared foundations and goals. By using an interdiscipl
 inary approach\, utilizing concepts from related areas of research\, such 
 as comparative education\, policy studies\, sociolinguistics\, or business
  studies\, this presentation opens up new perspectives on how to address g
 lobalization and internationalization with regard to music education. It p
 resents a new vision of how the global music education community could loo
 k like in terms of a culturally sensitive community.\n\nAlexandra Kertz-We
