This book nuances our understanding of the contemporary creative
economy by engaging with a set of three key tensions which emerged
over the course of eight European Colloquiums on Culture,
Creativity and Economy (CCE): 1) the tension between individual and
collaborative creative practices, 2) the tension between tradition
and innovation, and 3) the tension between isolated and
interconnected spaces of creativity. Rather than focusing on
specific processes, such as production, industries or locations,
the tensions acknowledge and engage with the messy and restless
nature of the creative economy. Individual chapters offer insights
into poorly understood practices, locations and contexts such as
co-working spaces in Berlin and rural Spain, creative businesses in
Leicester and the role and importance of cultural intermediaries in
creative economies within Africa. Others examine the nature of
trans-local cultural flows, the evolving "field" of fashion, and
the implications of social media and crowdfunding platforms. This
book will be of interest to students, scholars and professionals
researching the creative economy, as well as specific cultural and
creative industries, across the humanities and social sciences.
