Abstract:
In this book, Erin Kamler brings together feminist international research with the writing, composing, and production of an original musical designed to critique the discourse about the trafficking of women in Thailand. Through this study, Kamler illuminates a theory and praxis that she calls Dramatization as Research, or DAR. Ultimately, Kamler shows how the arts can be used as a feminist communication intervention and a vehicle for understanding the cultural dimension of human rights.
