Early life and education

Wagner was born on November 3, 1964, in Wołów, Poland, in a family of musicians.[citation needed] She began studying sociology at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences (EHESS) in Paris in 1996, and completed her Ph.D. there in 2006, defending the dissertation La production sociale de violonistes virtuoses ("Social Production of Virtuosoe)" with Jean-Michel Chapoulie [fr] as her thesis advisor.[2][3]

Scientific work

Within the field of sociological research, Wagner's contributions are focused on the careers of artists and intellectuals, professional socialization and geographic mobility, migrations, forced-migrations. She links history with sociology and wrote about antisemitism in Europe in 20th and 21st centuries.[citation needed]

Wagner is a part of the research activity that addresses Musicology, Ethnomusicology, Composition, Music Education, Global Jazz Studies, Music Industry, Music Performance, and Music Performance Studies.[6]
