Following the success of previous meetings, the Ibero-American Music Study Group invites its members and any conference attendees to a new version of the IAMSG-AMS Lightning Lounge to be held during our business meeting at the annual AMS conference in Chicago. Like preceding versions, this Lightning Lounge presents a selection of short papers exemplifying recent trends and topics. This time, the theme of our Lightning Lounge is called “Political uses of music in Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Iberian Peninsula". Throuhghout history, diverse social groups, institutions, and actors within the political spectrum have used music as a campaigning tool for promoting their ideas, encouraging political action, and opposing ideological adversaries and institutional regimes. 

We invite abstract submissions for 10-minute presentations that discuss the political uses of music in different historical contexts in the geographical areas presented before. Suggested themes may include, but are not restricted to:
- Music and political campaigns
- Politicians’ discourses on music and cultural policies
