Side by Side?

Más información sobre el libro

A new wave of community arts projects has opened up exciting areas of cross-cultural creativity. Often focusing on social and cultural agendas, these collaborations of local people, arts facilitators, anthropologists and others represent a flourishing new form of collaborative anthropology. This book investigates these projects as sites of significant cultural creation and potential social change. Through the exploration of a wide range of collaborations, the common threads and historical contexts are examined. The role such collaborations can have in disrupting existing social hierarchies and knowledge creation is analysed, as are other potential cultural implications.
