Inhaltsangabe:

In this volume Social Circus is explored in depth by three Circus Studies scholars working with the aim of creating new ways of engaging with the field. Lavers, Burtt, and Bochud investigate the way that Social Circus transforms in response to its immediate environment, and particularly its social, political, and cultural context.
