Fire dancers in Thailand's tourism industry : art, affect, and labor

Tiffany Rae Pollock

"An ethnography of fire dancers in Thailand's tourism industry that highlights how dancers employ affect to fulfill tourists' imaginaries and to negotiate the precarity and possibilities of touristic labor. Tracing affect through performance and everyday life, the book examines how dancers reimagine their labor and lives."
