How and why are arts and cultural practices meaningful to
communities? Highlighting examples from Lebanon, Latin America,
China, Ireland, India, Sri Lanka and beyond, this exciting book
explores the relationship between the arts, culture and community
development. Academics and practitioners from six continents
discuss how diverse communities understand, re-imagine or seek to
change personal, cultural, social, economic or political conditions
while using the arts as their means and spaces of engagement.
Investigating the theory and practice of 'cultural democracy', this
book explores a range of aesthetic forms including song, music,
muralism, theatre, dance, and circus arts.

This book is the first in-depth, ethnographic study of the Dutch
punk scene. It questions the artificial boundaries of subcultural
research, calling for a critical analysis of the distinctions drawn
between subcultural and everyday lives, and between localised and
globalised subcultures. The everyday experiences of punk are framed
within the mobile and connected global subculture of which they are
a part. It traces its emergence in the 1970s and its development
through to 2010, with chapters that map Dutch punk historically and
spatially. Further chapters explore the meanings and practices
attached to punk by its participants before focusing in particular
on the political affiliations of punks. This book argues for an
approach to social research that recognises the 'messiness' and the
'connectedness' of punk and of the social world.
