Social Innovation, Social Enterprises and the Cultural Economy

Faced with a depleted planet and a series of connected crises, socially minded agents and entities within the world of culture and the arts are reacting from within. With insights from sociology, economics, and cultural management and policy, this book aims to chronicle the journey of SMart – a cultural and artistic social enterprise now present in eight European countries – in order to illustrate such organisation’s efforts to achieve its potential for social innovation and transformation. Tackling the endemic precariousness and intermittency of work through innovative arrangements for cultural workers and artists has been central to these efforts. In many cases, however, this activis...

Cultural Policy and Management in Borderlands

This book uncovers the processes at play in the development of cultural policies, projects and networks in spaces at the edge of their countries, marked by their proximity with a borderline. On a subject which is studied mainly in North America and Western Europe and based on individual case studies, its originality lies in offering a comparative view on the subject, as well as in comparing a European case – the France-Germany borderlands – to a South American case – the Brazil-Uruguay borderlands. Through a multi-sited ethnographic study, the author develops an analysis of the formal and informal processes and networks which sustain this cultural action, looking at the relative contribution of processes led by institutions, cultural agents and the civil society. This book provides theoretical tools for the analysis of the way cultural ecosystems function in borderlands and is valuable reading for scholars of cultural policy, geography and arts management.

Globalisation, Commodification and Cultural Production in Africa

This book engages with contemporary cultural production in Africa, focusing on theatre in Sierra Leone as main case study. The author provides coverage of, and insights into, such themes as cultural globalisation, commodification, the global creative economy, culture and development, international relations and contemporary cultural production in Sierra Leone within the context of local and global flows of people, media, images, technologies, finance and ideas. Combining the analysis of theatre in Sierra Leone and its aesthetics with its policy, structural and institutional context, this book highlights in much detail and nuance the interconnectedness between the micro- and the macro-levels ...

Il distretto culturale evoluto

  • Categories: Art

Nell’ultimo ventennio la competitività territoriale ha modificato profondamente gli obbiettivi d’intervento delle amministrazioni pubbliche verso il patrimonio culturale, sempre più spesso considerato uno strumento per il rilancio economico dei territori. Le tecniche d’indagine connesse ai temi della creative city e del cultural planning trovano ampio spazio nell’agenda politica europea e nazionale ove, però, la dimensione cognitivo-relazionale dell’economia creativa è fatta coincidere con il modello produttivo tutto italiano del distretto culturale evoluto. Il volume si concentra sul distretto culturale evoluto come “rete di relazione” capace di generare ecosistemi supportivi per l’innovazione, proponendo un framework teorico per lo studio dei suoi assetti organizzativi, delle forme d’integrazione tra la filiera culturale e le altre filiere produttive, dei legami con i cluster dell’innovazione tecnologica, del turismo e dell’agroalimentare.

Creativity is getting new attention in today’s America––along the way revealing fault lines in U.S. culture. Surveys show people overwhelmingly seeing creativity as both a desirable trait and a work enhancement, yet most say they just aren’t creative. Like beauty and wealth, creativity seems universally desired but insufficiently possessed. Businesses likewise see innovation as essential to productivity and growth, but can’t bring themselves to risk new ideas. Even as one’s "inner artist" is hyped by a booming self-help industry, creative education dwindles in U.S. schools. Anxious Creativity: When Imagination Fails examines this conceptual mess, while focusing on how America’s...

Locus amoenus

La multidimensionalità del patrimonio culturale ha portato negli ultimi tempi a una specializzazione delle politiche e delle professioni nel campo della sua tutela e valorizzazione, incrementando le occasioni di cross-fertilisation tra diversi saperi. Il volume si concentra sulla programmazione culturale europea e nazionale, sulle misure di tutela e le forme di valorizzazione previste dalla pianificazione territoriale e paesaggistica nella riforma del governo del territorio, sul ruolo del patrimonio culturale nella definizione di strategie di rigenerazione urbana metropolitana. Questi aspetti sono indagati in riferimento agli esempi nazionali di buone pratiche e alle esperienze maturate in Sardegna dagli autori nell’ambito del progetto “Il patrimonio culturale regionale. Progettazione ed organizzazione del distretto culturale della Sardegna Meridionale” (Respons. Scient. A.M. Colavitti).

In questo senso alcuni tem...
