The whole landscape of research in urban studies was revolutionized
by the publication of Richard Florida's The Rise of the Creative
Class in 2002, and his subsequent book entitled The Flight of the
Creative Class has helped to maintain a decade-long explosion of
interest in the field. While these two books examine the creative
class in the context of the United States, research has emerged
which investigates the creative class worldwide. This book brings
together detailed studies of the creative class in cities across
the globe, examining the impact of the creative class on growth and
development. The countries covered include the United Kingdom, the
Netherlands, Germany, Australia, China, Japan and Canada, in
addition to the United States. Taken together, the contributions
deepen our understanding of the creative class and the various
factors that affect regional development, highlighting the
similarities and differences between the creative class and
economic development across countries. This book will be of great
interest to scholars of economic geography, regional economics,
urban sociology and cultural policy, as well as policy makers
involved in urban development.
