In her review of the book Gendered Power Dynamics and Exotic Dance: A Multilevel Analysis, Bernadette Barton shows how Deshotels and Forsyth examine “exotic dancers’ experiences of power in the context of three different levels of analysis: micro, meso, and institutional.” Barton outlines the efforts of the authors in creating a flexible feminist theory of power showing how each level impacts and interacts with the others. She demonstrates how the authors deepen our understanding of power changes based on the context.
