Book Synopsis Performing Citizenship by : Paula Hildebrandt

Download or read book Performing Citizenship written by Paula Hildebrandt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book discusses how citizenship is performed today, mostly through the optic of the arts, in particular the performing arts, but also from the perspective of a wide range of academic disciplines such as urbanism and media studies, cultural education and postcolonial theory. It is a compendium that includes insights from artistic and activist experimentation. Each chapter investigates a different aspect of citizenship, such as identity and belonging, rights and responsibilities, bodies and materials, agencies and spaces, and limitations and interventions. It rewrites and rethinks the many-layered concept of citizenship by emphasising the performative tensions produced by various uses, occupations, interpretations and framings.
