This is evident from the social history of jive, the marketing of trans-national ballet, ritual healing dances in Italy or folk dances performed for tourists in Mexico, Panama and Canada. Dance often captures those essential dimensions of social life that cannot be easily put into words. What are the flows and movements of dance carried by migrants and tourists? How is dance used to shape nationalist ideology? What are the connections between dance and ethnicity, gender, health, globalization and nationalism, capitalism and post-colonialism? Through innovative and wide-ranging case studies, the contributors explore the central role dance plays in culture as leisure commodity, cultural heritage, cultural aesthetic or cathartic social movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t“\u003cem\u003eThis collection of essays is a welcome focus on dance anthropology. The book encompasses chapters on an impressive range of traditions and practices from developed as well as developing countries across the world, including small and large phenomena.

However, they also collectively build layered and interlocking perspectives on larger patterns of change in the contemporary world, making the book highly topical… This collection has breadth yet also coherence.

The photographs are clear and they work well to support to relevant arguments. It is a successful research-oriented volume with very good links between theories and practice in relation to ethnographic studies, tourism, and dance. This book is appropriate and worthwhile for undergraduate and postgraduate students for their in-depth research on social, cultural, and tourism studies. In particular, the excellent case studies in this volume provide insights in to how dance performance is relevant to other different disciplines. Its examples are also relevant for practitioners who work in the creative, culture, and tourism sectors.\u003c\/em\u003e”\u003cstrong\u003e · Annals of Tourism Research\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Movement of Dancing Cultures\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eHélène Neveu Kringelbach\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eJonathan Skinner\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePart I: Dance and globalisation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eGlobalization and the Dance Import\/Export Business: The Jive Story\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJonathan Skinner\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eBallet culture and the market: a transnational perspective\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eHelena Wulff\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3.  \u003c\/strong\u003e“We’ve got this rhythm in our blood”:  dancing identities in Southern Italy \u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eKaren Lüdtke\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePart II: Tourism, Social Transformation and the Dance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003ePerformance in tourism: transforming the gaze and tourist encounter at Híwus Feasthouse\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eLinda Scarangella-McNenly\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eMovement on the move: performance and dance tourism\u003cbr\u003e \tFelicia Hughes-Freeland\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eDance, visibility and representational self-awareness in an Embera community in Panama\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eDimitrios Theodossopoulos\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePart III: Dance, identity and the nation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 7.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eMoving shadows of Casamance: dance and regionalism in Senegal\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eHélène Neveu Kringelbach\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 8.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eBallet Folklórico Mexicano: choreographing a national identity in a transnational context\u003cbr\u003e \tOlga Nájera-Ramírez\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 9.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDance, youth and changing gender identities in Korea\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eSéverine Carrausse\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 10.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003ePreparation, presentation and power: children’s performances in a Balinese dance studio\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJonathan McIntosh\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eEpilogue: \u003c\/strong\u003eMaking culture\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eCaroline Potter\u003c\/em\u003e                                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \tNotes on Contributors\u003cbr\u003e \tBibliography\u003cbr\u003e \tIndex           \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berghahn Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042218344791,"sku":"9781782385226","price":26.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781782385226.jpg?v=1750953490","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/dancing-cultures-globalization-tourism-and-identity-in-the-anthropology-of-dance-9781782385226","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
