Sažetak
The term world dance has different meanings for dancers, various dance practitioners and amongst the wider public where it inconsistently denotes various dances or dance forms. There is no uniformity in its use or even agreement regarding connotations connected with how the term is used. This article will attempt to explore the possible meanings covered by the term and offer theoretical deliberations on it through the example of classical ballet. The controversial hypothesis of whether a ballet dance form could also be considered world dance will also be explored.
