SeriesDiscovering the creative industries
Abstract "The creative economy permeates our everyday lives, shaping where we live, what we buy, and how we interact with others. Looking at dimensions of people, place, policy, and market forces, the book offers a comprehensive perspective on arts and culture both in economic and social life. The book explores the multifaceted components that make up this complex field. Underlying this journey is the through-line of diversity, equity, and inclusion as watchwords of today's global paradigm. Key issues analyzed include capital, gentrification, pay disparities, and the hegemonic confines of cultural production. Incorporating vignettes of artists and creatives from the worlds of visual art, design, music, and the media arts, the book also delves into mythologies and realities of being a working artist and presents a more nuanced look at ways in which creative sectors impact the world today. Readers will benefit from features such as key takeaways, discussion questions, and activities throughout the chapters. Students, scholars, policymakers, and the general public will find this a valuable resource. Reading the book offers the reader a chance not only to understand the cultural and creative industries, but to internalize its elements and embrace the creative spirit that imbues the sector"-- Provided by publisher.
