Since its emergence in the 1960s; salsa has transformed from a symbol of Nuyorican pride into an emblem of pan-Latinism and finally a form of global popular culture. While Latinos all over the world have developed and even exported their own ldquo;dance accents;rdquo; local dance scenes have arisen in increasingly far-flung locations; each with their own flavor and unique features.Salsa Worldexamines the ways in which bodies relate to culture in specific places. The contributors; a notable group of scholars and practitioners; analyze dance practices in the U.S.; Japan; Spain; France; Colombia; Cuba; Puerto Rico; and the Dominican Republic. Writing from the disciplines of ethnomusicology; anthropology; sociology; and performance studies; the contributors explore salsarsquo;s kinetopias - places defined by movement; or vice versa- as they have arisen through the dancersquo;s interaction with local histories; identities; and musical forms.
