Abstract

This contribution deals with the topic of transnationalism as it has developed in the humanities in the last two decades. The starting point for the reflections is the author's experiences over the course of two research projects in the years 1996 to 2003. "Musik baut Brücken?" seeks to highlight some of the definitions and difficulties of "transnationalism" which have become obvious in several debates and in research projects. Employing illuminating, empirical examples, this text pays particular attention to music, folk songs and community singing from a Swedish-German perspective.
