Malpaso Dance Company Is Filled with Information and Ideas That Support the Performance and the Study Unit You Will Create with Your Teaching Artist
The Joyce Dance Education Program Resource and Reference Guide Photo by Laura Diffenderfer The Joyce’s School & Family Programs are supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council; and made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. Special support has been provided by Con Edison, The Walt Disney Company, A.L. and Jennie L. Luria Foundation, and May and Samuel Rudin Family Foundation, Inc. December 10, 2018 Dear Teachers, The resource and reference material in this guide for Malpaso Dance Company is filled with information and ideas that support the performance and the study unit you will create with your teaching artist. For this performance, Malpaso will present Ohad Naharin’s Tabla Rasa in its entirety. Tabula Rasa made its world premiere on the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre on February 6, 1986. Thirty-two years after that first performance, on May 4, 2018, this seminal work premiered on Malpaso Dance Company in Cuba. Check out the link here for the mini-documentary on Ohad Naharin’s travels to Havana to work with Malpaso. This link can also be found in the Resources section of this study guide. A new work by company member Beatriz Garcia Diaz will also be on the program, set to music by the Italian composer Ezio Bosso. The title of this work is the Spanish word Ser, which translates to “being” in English. I love this quote by Kathleen Smith from NOW Magazine Toronto: "As the theatre begins to vibrate with accumulated energy, you get the feeling that they could dance just about any genre with jaw-dropping style. -

For example as she has stated, “domestic factors” have not been considered into “systems theories”. (Neuman, 1995, p.16) On this basis, it is necessary to point out these local factors, and furthermore, the role of non-state actors within the realm of internal dynamics, since international relations theory also aims to understand the formation and motivation behind economic policy. -

P. Hulme Making Sense of the Native Caribbean Critique of Recent Attempts to Make Sense of the History and Anthropology of the Native Caribbean
P. Hulme Making sense of the native Caribbean Critique of recent attempts to make sense of the history and anthropology of the native Caribbean. These works are based on the writings of Columbus and his companions and assume that there were 2 tribes: the Arawaks and Caribs. Author argues however that much work is needed to untangle the complex imbrication of native Caribbean and European colonial history. In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 67 (1993), no: 3/4, Leiden, 189-220 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl PETER HULME MAKING SENSE OF THE NATIVE CARIBBEAN The quincentenary of the discovery by Caribbean islanders of a Genoese sailor in the service of Spain who thought he was off the coast of China has served to refocus attention on a part of the world whose native history has been little studied. Christopher Columbus eventually made some sense of the Caribbean, at least to his own satisfaction: one of his most lasting, if least recognized, achievements was to divide the native population of the Carib- bean into two quite separate peoples, a division that has marked percep- tions of the area now for five hundred years. This essay focuses on some recent attempts to make sense of the history and anthropology of the native Caribbean, and argues that much work is yet needed to untangle their com- plex imbrication with European colonial history.1 THE NOVEL An outline of the pre-Columbian history of the Caribbean occupies the first chapter of James Michener's block-busting 672-page historical novel, Caribbean, published in 1989, a useful source of popular conceptions about the native populations of the area. -
In Contemporary Jamaica There Are Two Major Political Parties
Rex McKenzie The Party & The Garrison Aug 2005 Introduction This work is intended to be a scholarly contribution in the area of Caribbean Political Economy. It is premised on the notion that the peculiar history of Jamaica, the slave plantation origin through to the colonial, neocolonial and post colonial forms of economic organization tend to the formation and reproduction of the total institution as a system of social organization.1 RT Smith in the original application of the Goffman concept of the total institution to plantation society describes it as a bureaucratically organized system in which blocks of people are treated as units and are marched through a set of regimented activities under the close surveillance of a small supervisory staff. 2 With regard to the social system and the corresponding social relations causality is assumed to flow from the political system and the political culture. In the post independence period (after 1962) patron-client relations between the state, its institutions and sections of the urban poor emerge as the defining social relationships of the social system as a whole. But these relationships are rooted in the history of the island with the relationship between the plantation owner (or his representative) and the slave exhibiting similar pronounced patron-client features. In my formulation the post independence emergence of the garrison constituency is construed as part of the historical imperative toward culturally familiar total institution forms of social management. Figueroa 1 The idea of the total institutions comes from Goffman’s 1960’s work on Asylums. In it small socially recognizable groups drive a larger group in through the production process in a very regimented and differentiated manner. -
