Her research concerns music in social movements and popular music. Her book, The Revolution Will Not Be Televised: Protest Music after Fukushima, won the John Whitney Hall Prize from the Association for Asian Studies, the Book Award from the British Forum for Ethnomusicology, and honorable mention for the Alan Merriam Prize at the Society for Ethnomusicology. | www.norikomanabe.com
