An Introduction to The Routledge Companion to Ethics and Research in Ethnomusicology
Since the 1970s,the study of ethics has been incorporated into the field of ethnomusicology.Due to the complex nature of ethical issues,there has not been a single book focusing on this area of research from a global perspective until now.In 2022,Jonathan Stock and Beverley Diamond edited Ethics and Research in Ethnomusicology to fill this research gap.The book is divided into six parts:introduction;sound practices and philosophies of ethics;fieldwork encounters;environment,trauma,collaboration;research in the public domains and afterword.Besides,it contains 30 articles with introductions written by either Stock or Diamond for each section,except for the introduction and afterword.These articles introduce the meanings of the respective subthemes,sum-marize key arguments and contents of each author's contribution,and provide suggestions for further reading.Jonathan Stock em-phasizes that ethics is an ongoing process of engagement between researchers and research subjects.In the research process,it is important to respect the cultural values of the research subjects,give them agency over their own narratives,and whenever possible,provide tangible benefits to the communities being studied.
