The Art of Solidarity (University of Texas Press, 2018) Examining artistic production in solidarity movements throughout the Cold War era, this multidisciplinary anthology reveals the tremendous role that art and performance have played in the quest for social justice in the Americas.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is the most dynamic and methodologically creative book I have read in any language on the cultural Cold War in the Americas. The editors have assembled eight stellar chapters (plus an introduction and epilogue) that combine analyses of cultural practices nationally and in contexts of transnational solidarities. In ranging theoretical and methodological contexts, the editors and contributors are concerned with the forms by which solidarity movements have been shaped by the arts, and vice versa. Solidarity, the editor\u2019s note, presupposes empathy [\u2026]. and empathy is at the core of what the editors are out to discover. \u201cAuthors in this volume advocate vigorously for the examination of empathy as an embodied form of social and political action\u201d (6). But this book is much more. Each chapter is a remarkable methodological workshop on the intersections of art and solidarity\u2014how art is done as transnational solidarity,\u201d<\/p>\n (Description Source: University of Texas Press<\/a>, David Sheinin) Jessica Stites Mor<\/strong> is an associate professor of History at The University of British Columbia (Okanagan).
