Recensioner i media

“The Festival Cities of Edinburgh and Adelaide offers a convincing interdisciplinary and transnational approach for Festival Studies. … Thomasson proposes an expedient methodological framework to analyse festivals' institutional structure as well as their role in local economies, place promotion, and the construction of national identities, which can be taken as inspiration for research projects on other international arts festivals and their fringe counterparts.” (Hanna Huber, rezens.tfm, rezenstfm.univie.ac.at, November 14, 2024)
