2018 || Paperback || Milena Minkova || Leuven University Press

A Marginal Phenomenon or a Mirror to Society?

Her extensive analysis of texts from six major Ja...

Sound Work

Composition as Critical Technical Practice

2021 || Paperback || Jonathan Impett || Leuven University Press

The practices and perception of music creation have evolved with the cultural, social and technological contexts of music and musicians. But musical authorship, in its many technical and aesthetic modes, remains an important component of music culture. Musicians are increasingly called on to share their experience in writing. However, cultural imperatives to account for composition as knowledge production and to make claims for its uniqueness inhibit the development of discourse in both exper...

International Development Cooperation Today

A Radical Shift Towards a Global Paradigm

2021 || Paperback || Patrick Develtere e.a. || Leuven University Press

Over the past 60 years high-income countries have invested over 4000 billion euros in development aid. With varying degrees of success, these investments in low-income countries contributed to tackling structural problems such as access to water, health care, and education. Today, however, international development cooperation is no longer restricted to helping by giving. Instead, it is rather about opportunities, mutual interests, risk taking, and an inclusive societal approach. With the arr...
