This collection of essays examines popular forms of dance in the
Balkan nations, including detailed studies on the history and
development of dance in Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia, Romania, and
Greece, among other nations. The essays address the ways in which
ethnic and national identity constitutes an important aspect of the
performance of Balkan dance, whether by state folk dance ensembles
or immigrant groups in other countries. Several essays also examine
the unique popularity that Balkan dances and music have found among
American audiences, with special attention paid to the work of
international folk dancer, Dick Crum in promoting Balkan dance
within the United States.
