Cultural Dance in Australia

Essays on performance contexts beyond the Pale

By: Jeanette Mollenhauer

This book draws on theories of aesthetics, post-colonialism, multiculturalism and transnationalism to explore salient aspects of perpetuating traditional dance customs in diaspora. It is the first book to present a broad-ranging analysis of cultural dance in Australia. Topics include adaptation of dance customs within a post-migration context, multicultural festivals, prominent performers, historiographies and archives, and the relative positionings of cultural and Western theatrical dance genres. The book offers a decolonized appraisal of dance in Australia, critiquing past and present praxes and offering suggestions for the future. Overall, it underscores the highly variegated nature of the Australian dance landscape and advocates for greater recognition of amateur community dance practices. Cultural Dance in Australia makes a substantial contribution to the catalogue of work about immigrants and cultural dance styles that continue to be preserved in Australia. This book will be of interest to scholars of dance, performance studies, migration studies and transnationalism.

Carers Doing It Tough, Doing It Well

By: Byron Kemp,Sue King,Zoe Paleologos,John Bellamy,Jeanette Mollenhauer

In this report, Anglicare Sydney highlights the positive impact of support programs for older carers and calls for the government to secure their funding in face of changes due to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). The report presents evaluation findings from two of Anglicare Sydney's programs - the Support Coordination Program (SCP) - a case-managed service designed to provide support over a period of 12 months and develop transition planning for carers over the age of 60 years who are caring for an adult son or daughter with a disability - and the Respite Options Program (ROP) - which provides in-home and day centre respite for carers under the age of 65 years. Evaluation data was collected over a number of years and looked at improved service use, support for social contact, stress and wellbeing, family relations and conflict, and satisfaction with life, health, financial situation, and housing. Government funding of these programs will cease as funds are redirected towards the NDIS - however, carer needs and supports are not formally recognised as part of NDIS packages.
