Dance, Human Rights, and Social Justice: Dignity in Motion presents
a wide-ranging compilation of essays, spanning more than 15
countries. Organized in four parts, the articles examine the
regulation and exploitation of dancers and dance activity by
government and authoritative groups, including abusive treatment of
dancers within the dance profession; choreography involving human
rights as a central theme; the engagement of dance as a means of
healing victims of human rights abuses; and national and local
social/political movements in which dance plays a powerful role in
helping people fight oppression. These groundbreaking papers both
detailed scholarship and riveting personal accounts encompass a
broad spectrum of issues, from slavery and the Holocaust to the
Bosnian and Rwandan genocides to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict;
from First Amendment cases and the AIDS epidemic to discrimination
resulting from age, gender, race, and disability. A range of
academics, choreographers, dancers, and dance/movement therapists
draw connections between refugee camp, courtroom, theater,
rehearsal studio, and university classroom.
