Through a unique range of theoretical and practical case studies,
this collection considers the relationship between the arts
(understood as the visual arts, crafts, theatre, dance, and
literature) and development, creating both a bridge between them
that is rarely explored and filling in concrete ways the content of
the "culture" part of the equation "culture and development". It
includes manifestations of culture and the ways in which they
relate to development, and in turn contribute to such pressing
issues as poverty alleviation, concern for the environment, health,
empowerment, and identity formation. It shows how the arts are an
essential part of the concrete understanding of culture, and as
such a significant part of development thinking - including the
development of culture, and not only of culture as an instrumental
means to promote other development goals.
