In recent years, there has been high level of interest amongst
policy-makers in the 'creative city' concept, due to the
anticipation of economic and social benefits from a growing
cultural and creative economy. However, a lack of understanding of
local social and economic contexts, as well as the complexities and
challenges of cultural production, has resulted in formulaic,
ineffective misguided policies. This book is concerned, in various
ways, with developing an understanding of the complex dimensions of
cultural production, and with tackling the often weak and implied
links between research, policy and urban planning. In particular,
contributors are concerned with agents, protagonists and practices
that appear to be somehow invisible to, hidden from, or indeed
ignored in much contemporary creative cities policy. Drawing on
case studies from the UK and the Netherlands, chapters consider
creative industries and policy across a range of scales, from
provincial cities and regional economies, to the global cities of
London and Amsterdam. This book was originally published as a
special issue of European Planning Studies.
