The People’s Dance : The Power and Politics of Guangchang Wu Hardback
by Rose Martin, Ruohan Chen
Part of the Critical Studies in Dance Leadership and Inclusion series
Hardback
Description
This book presents an analysis of how the grassroots movement of Guangchang Wu or ‘square dance’ in China has become a national phenomenon.
Through oral narratives offering rich descriptions of lived encounters, the experiences of those involved in leading, organizing, teaching and learning Guangchang Wu are revealed.
Through these narratives, this book serves to understand the leadership practices occurring and how this dance practice is deeply rooted in the complexities of China’s rapid economic development, acceleration of urbanisation, and the desire for a healthier and more communal lifestyle.
