The power of carnival has long been appreciated and theorised. However, the potential for harnessing that power specifically to facilitate intercultural interaction has not previously been examined. This study considers the application of both carnival theory and intercultural communication theory in the context of the eMzantsi Carnival, an event that was initiated to assist integration between the culturally diverse communities of Cape Town's southern peninsula. Qualitative material gathered during six in-depth interviews with a culturally diverse range of people closely involved in the creation of the inaugural eMzantsi Carnival was examined against the backdrop of the larger eMzantsi Participatory Action Research project. 2014-10-06T11:20:29Z 2014-10-06T11:20:29Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8112 eng application/pdf Department of Sociology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
