Abstract

In 2021, the International Festival of Street Theatre in Aurillac, France, was cancelled for the second consecutive summer. Amidst the ensuing furore, street theatre artists and their advocates risked conflating public health measures with the oppressive policies of the security state. This essay critically examines the underlying assumptions at work in these arguments and insists on the importance of public health to the defence of public space.

公众及其健康：La Grande Manifestive，欧里亚克，2021 年

摘要

2021年，法国欧里亚克国际街头戏剧节连续第二个夏季取消。在随之而来的骚动中，街头戏剧艺术家及其拥护者冒着将公共卫生措施与安全国家的压迫性政策混为一谈的风险。本文批判性地审视了这些论点中起作用的基本假设，并坚持认为公共卫生对捍卫公共空间的重要性。
