Postmodernism and Music Therapy

Resumen

The present essay is a short and probably superficial analysis of music therapy and music therapy research. I have to say that by no means do I consider myself an expert or even experienced enough to provide "critiques" about any area of music therapy. This work is a revised version of a term paper presented at the University of Kansas in 2002, and is just the result of my interest in some recent trends of thoughts (e.g. social constructionism), and their impact, if any, on music therapy. I believe in dialogue as a means to forward knowledge, and so I dare to share this work with colleagues.
