The concept of community as a form of  class-based solidarity has been hollowed out by postmodernism’s questioning of grand  narratives and poststructuralism’s celebration of difference. Alongside the critique of a notion  of community has been a critical re-signification of community, following the thinking of  philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy who conceives of community not as common being but as being-in-common. The concept of community as being-in-common generates questions that have  been taken up by feminist geographers, J.K. Gibson-Graham, in theorising a post-capitalist  approach to community-based development. These questions and approaches guide the  analyses in researched case studies of community performance practice. The book revises  theoretical debates that have defined the field of community theatre and performance.  It asks how the critical re-signification of community aligns with these debates and, at the same  time, opens new modes of critical analysis of community theatre and performance practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2022-04-07\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030957568\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-95757-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 201\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47540122714252,"sku":"9783030957568","price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030957568.jpg?v=1776080427","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030957568","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
