From the Back Cover

Structure and power are two defining and interrelated aspects of the German theater business. It is based on the strictly hierarchical organization of 1900 and has undergone hardly any structural changes since then. This not only impairs the innovative capacity of this important institution, but also leads to inappropriately strong power positions of the directors, to conflicts with the ensembles and employees, and hinders the development and renewal of the artistic potentials of this cultural technique. The publication is based on the results of the study 'Art and Power in the Theater' - with 1966 participants the largest study of its kind.

The content

  • Power as a decision-making and management tool in the theater
  • The connection between power and organization
  • Power and abuse in the theater
  • Structural power and forms of power containment
  • Results of the study

The target groups

  • Students, teachers and researchers in the fields of cultural management, cultural and theater studies, dramaturgy, psychology, sociology and anthropology,
  • employees of management in theaters and other cultural organizations.
