Books by Joseph Gonzales

A first in Malaysia, this book investigates interculturalism from the point of view of a dance practitioner-academician whose interest in pursuing expressions in a multicultural country stems from the experience of living in a society that has assented to the duality of the prescribed national cultural policy versus real artistic practices. This engaged writing opens new trajectories in intercultural studies within the domains of contemporary dance in Malaysia, and is a must for dance and cultural studies readers.
