In the context of globalization and multiculturalism processes, it is possible to appreciate the spread of body, drama and dance techniques linked to non-Western performance traditions –Asian, African or Amerindian. We propose an anthropological study of the dissemination and practice of these performance traditions in different regions of Argentina, comparing urban centers that concentrate a great part of the production in the field of performing arts (Buenos Aires and Rosario) with outlying cities with important Amerindian performance traditions (Humahuaca and Formosa).
