Full Description
This exam investigates power dynamics inherent in performance and how they manifest in cultural representation and resistance. Candidates will engage with theories that address how performance reflects, challenges, or sustains power structures.
Understanding power relations in performance is essential for critiquing cultural representations and recognizing acts of resistance. This contributes to broader discussions about social justice and cultural agency in anthropology.
Candidates will be assessed on their ability to articulate the interplay between performance and power dynamics, using theoretical frameworks and real-world examples for illustration.
Engagement with historical and contemporary contexts will be encouraged to enhance the depth of analysis.
