Abstract
This chapter reflects on work in Drama and Performance Studies published in 2013 and 2014 and is divided into two sections: 1. Performing Anthropology; 2. Performance and Capitalism. Section 1 is by Daniël Ploeger and examines publications that consider performance in anthropology, archaeology and game studies through both theoretical analysis and practice-based enquiry. Section 2 is by Pieter Verstraete and focuses on developments in theatre and performance studies scholarship that engages with capitalism and neoliberalism, in relation to histories of the modernist avant-garde, contemporary arts policies, and sound in theatre and performance.
