This book provides a comparative analysis of how communities have
developed people-based resilience in response to the global impact
of COVID-19. The crisis of the capitalist economy due to border
closure, downturn in business, loss of jobs and large-scale
destruction of people's well-being has worsened poverty, and
inequality worsened the situation of the already marginalized. At
the same time, it has provided the opportunity for indigenous and
marginalized communities to innovatively strengthen their social
and solidarity economies to respond the unprecedented calamity in a
self-empowering and sustainable way. The book explores some of the
ways in which local communities have mobilized their cultural
resources to strengthen their social solidarity and mitigating
mechanisms against the continuing global calamity. It looks at how
different communities approach social protection as a way of
sustaining their well-being outside the parameters of the ailing
market economy and how some of these can provide valuable lessons
for strengthening resilience for the future.
The countries surrounding the Baltic Sea - Denmark, Estonia,
Latvia, Finland, Germany, Lithuania, Poland, Russia, and Sweden -
have experienced immense social and political change, from the
territorial maneuverings of Sweden, Russia, and Denmark, the
reunification of Germany, to more recent moves towards independence
of Eastern Bloc countries as the Soviet Union crumbled. Tensions
surrounding the Baltic Sea have not dissipated but rather new
challenges and contentions have emerged, resulting in a
multicultural and multilingual region. Dance in the region has been
tightly interwoven with political trends and events, yet the dance
history of the region to date has focused almost entirely on state
sponsored folk and classical dance. Dance, Diversity and Difference
presents contemporary stories of dance, revealing the diverse
voices of dance practitioners and demonstrating the ways in which
dance has connections with families, societies, governments, the
economy and can offer fresh insights into cultural and political
change.
