Theories and Practices of the Contemporary Scene in Latin America
Dear collaborators,
The editorial board of CONCEPT magazine and the Master's Degree in Theater Research of the Rodolfo Usigli National Center for Research, Documentation and Information (CITRU), of the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature (INBAL) of Mexico, invite you to submit research works, such as original articles and scientific essays, for the dossier Theories and Practices of the Contemporary Scene in Latin America, in the following fields of study:
- Border bodies and violence, which seeks to account for artistic and social practices that include contemporary theatre as a reflection on dehumanization and the administration of life;
- Performativity and liminal spaces, where the understanding of the processual dimension of reality allows us to think about performing practices that destabilize the conceptual and identity dichotomies of the dramatic genre;
- Theatre and education, in relation to theatre as a collective artistic activity that takes a position on social events, pointing to the civic nature of theatricality.
Within these lines of research, the following perspectives fit: views from the global South; decolonial studies; feminisms; political scene and citizenship formation; and memory and archive, in relation to Latin American productions.
