Beschreibung

Dancing for Survival explores the profound role of dance, not just as art, but as a vital tool for human resilience across history. From war zones to times of economic crises, dance emerges as a potent coping mechanism, a means of economic support, and a form of political protest. The book reveals how this performing art has served as a strategy for confronting and overcoming life-threatening challenges. One intriguing fact is dance's historical use in appeasing warring gods, while another is its contemporary application in challenging social injustice, highlighting its enduring adaptability.

 
The book progresses by first introducing dance as a survival tool across psychological, economic, and political dimensions. It then uses specific case studies to show its impact in war-torn regions, deprived areas, and as a vehicle for social change. This approach emphasizes that dance is an essential human practice, contributing to both physical and psychological well-being, and urges a reassessment of its value, especially during times of turmoil, offering insights into fostering resilience and promoting social justice in contemporary society.

    Denise Collazo has been there. She is the first Latina, the first woman of color, and the first woman period to raise a family and stay in the work of community organizing at Faith in Action, an international progressive network of 3,000 congregations. Drawing on her own experiences and those of other Latina activists, Collazo lays out three keys to thriving in the movement for social change: leading into your vision, living into the fullest version of yourself, and loving past negatives that hold you back. She also warns about the three signs that you may be checking out, giving up, or passively standing by while problems get worse. This honest, practical, and inspirational book will help Latina activists to burn bright, not burn out.

    Leon Trotsky (1879-1940) was a Bolshevik revolutionary and Marxist theorist. He was one of the leaders of the Russian October Revolution, second only to Vladimir Lenin. During the early days of the Soviet Union, he served first as People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs and later as the founder and commander of the Red Army and People's Commissar of War. He was also among the first members of the Politburo. 
    Why fascism was able to conquer only in those countries where social democratic or Stalinist parties blocked the workers and their allies from utilizing a revolutionary situation to remove the capitalists from power. There is a scientific analysis of fascism. It was made by the exiled Bolshevik revolutionary Leon Trotsky not as a postmortem, but during the rise of fascism. This was — along with his analysis of the nature of Stalinism — Trotsky's greatest contribution to Marxist theory. He began the task after Mussolini's victory in Italy in 1922 and brought itto ahigh pointin the years preceding Hitler'striumphin Germany in 1933.
