The Cultural Politics of Human Rights in the Opera Sector in England

我的项目旨在产生一个实质性的实证研究基础，以考虑以权利为基础的公众参与歌剧部门的方法（无论是否明确表示）与组织在当代社会中吸引不同群体的相对成功之间的关系，特别是在种族和社会经济背景方面。该项目采用跨学科框架，借鉴人权学术、社会学和语言学的理论和方法。我将“公众参与”广泛地定义为组织与公众之间的任何界面，包括艺术节目、通过学习和参与项目产生的作品以及数字内容，并以巴雷特的“整个剧院活动”（2016）概念为基础。

My project aims to generate a substantive empirical research basis for considering the correlationbetween a rights-based approach to public engagement in the opera sector (whether or not it isarticulated as such) and organisations' relative success in engaging diverse groups in contemporarysociety, particularly in relation to ethnicity and socio-economic background. The project adopts aninterdisciplinary framework drawing on theories and methodologies in human rights scholarship,sociology and linguistics. I deploy "public engagement" broadly as any interface between an organisationand the public, including artistic programming, work generated through learning & participationprogrammes and digital content, and build on Barrett's notion of "the whole theatregoing event" (2016).
