Culture, Ethnicity and the Politics/Poetics of Representation

Anthropology and Comparative Sociology Macquarie University

This paper analyses and separates the concepts of culture and ethnicity, discussing the politics of identity and relations of power in cultural processes and forms of representation. In the light of this discussion, some aspects of music and dance are considered, including the diasporic identification suggested in Paul Gilroy's studies of black music and ele ments of Greek dance, in Greece and Australia. The empha sis here is on a logic of practice that can move beyond both essentialisms and celebratory pluralisms.
