"This book focuses on how in/security works in and through Jamaican dancehall, and on the insights that Jamaican dancehall offers for the global study of in/security. This collection draws together a multi-disciplinary range of key scholars in in/security and dancehall. Scholars from the University of the West Indies Centre for Reggae Studies, as well as independent dancehall and dance practitioners from Kingston, writers from the UK, US, and continental Europe, offer their differently-situated perspectives on dancehall, its histories, its spatial patterning, its professional status, and its aesthetics. The study brings together critical security studies with dancehall studies and will be of great interest to students, scholars and practitioners in theatre, dance and performance studies, sociology, cultural geography, anthropology, post-colonial studies, diaspora studies, musicology, and gender studies"--
