This unique and insightful book provides a comprehensive
examination of contemporary cultural policy and its discourses,
influences, and consequences. It examines the factors that have led
to a narrowing of cultural policy and suggests new ways of thinking
about cultural policy beyond economics by reconnecting it with the
practices of work, value, and the social. With a particular focus
on Australia and the UK, and with reference to transnational bodies
including UNESCO, this book identifies and examines influential
national and international factors that have shaped cultural
policy, including its implementation of an economic agenda. Deborah
Stevenson retraces the foundations of contemporary cultural policy,
with chapters exploring the hierarchies of legitimacy that form the
basis of value and excellence, the increased hegemony of the
economy within the art world complex, and the notions of class and
gender as two key factors of social inequality that shape access to
the arts. Analysing cultural value, work, and the social as
important points of tension and potential disruption within
contemporary cultural policy, this book will be essential reading
for students and scholars of arts and cultural management, cultural
policy studies, cultural sociology, economics, and leisure and
urban studies. It will also be of interest to students, scholars,
and practitioners across the humanities and the social sciences.
