This volume gathers together her finest writings since 1995 and includes critical essays by Jean Fisher and Caroline Vercoe that interpret her work.Engaging and provocative, these essays, interviews, performance scripts and fotonovelas take readers on a tour of our current multicultural landscape. Fusco explores such issues as sex tourism in Cuba as a barometer of the island's entry into the global economy, Frantz Fanon's theorization of metropolitan blackness, and artistic and net activist responses to the effects of free trade on the Mexican populace. She interviews such postcolonial personnae as Isaac Julien, Hilton Als and Tracey Moffatt.

The society, politics and future of Cuba are high on the world's agenda in the twenty-first century. Exploring performance and politics in the post-revolutionary state, Dangerous Moves presents a fascinating survey of contemporary culture in Cuba through some of its most daring and experimental artists.Coco Fusco analyses the ways in which the regime has wielded influence over artists in recent times, showing how the language of performance has emerged as the favoured means of social commentary. Focusing on a range of performative practices in visual art, music, poetry and political activism, Fusco examines the relationship between the expressive body in performance and the greater body politic of a state officially defined as revolutionary, yet seeking to limit and constrain dissent.
