How much for a Dancer? Culture Policy in Japan and Czech Republic
Original language description
This paper offers a view on a different approach towards a dancer's career in two very dissimilar countries> on one hand Japan, an economic predator at the end of the last century, but suffering under an economic crisis from the beginning of the new century` and the Czech Republic, a post/communist country, caught up in capitalist fever from the 1990s on the other. The government's approach towards culture and dance in these two countries not only has a different history and nature but also presents a different take on the ideal future development in its respective dance scenes. The level of support from the state budget echoes in all the fields of a professional dance career, dance art, and the education of the public towards dance. The message of the statistical data is clear: the production of an enormous number of well-trained and expensive educated dancers with no jobs for them in Japan, and a lack of good dancers ready to fill state-supported theater companies in the Czech Republic (that gladly employ Japanese dancers). The paradigm leaves a big exclamation mark on the huge influence the policy has on dance in society, and a question mark on the ideal situation.
