Description
The different stages of a festival's evolution
provide a plethora of opportunities for us to better understand our culture,
the relationships we build, what we value in our culture and our communities,
and how we socialize and interact with one another. Managing and Developing Community Festivals and Events brings
together community festival and event research from nine different countries.
It critically explores how festivals and their communities develop and impact
upon one another. The chapters focus on a wide range of festivals such as food
and culinary festivals, art events, religious pilgrimage and feast festivals,
as well as a variety of diverse themes such as joy, civil unrest, preservation
of cultures and authenticity.
