About This Volume
This book emerged from an ongoing collaboration between Volker Kirchberg and Tasos Zembylas, both with many years of experience in the social organization of arts and adjacent fields. After the project proposal was accepted by the academic board of mdwPress, the book underwent a double-blind peer review by two reviewers. On the basis of the reviews and subsequent revisions, the academic board accepted the final manuscript for publication.
