Culture refers to not only the arts but also other manifestations
of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively. It
similarly refers to the customs, institutions, and achievements of
a social group, a people, or a nation. Innovation refers to the
action or process of change, alteration, or revolution; a new
method of idea creation or product that may bring about change. It
is easy to assume that innovation may be juxtaposed to the
preservation of culture and time-tested rituals. Yet as human
settlements grew; and as streets and squares evolved through the
diverse exchanges of people trading, celebrating, rallying and
socially interacting, it should come as little surprise that cities
and its places would become, and continue to be, centres of culture
and innovation that can be inextricably linked. Culture and
Innovation in cities can potentially take on different complexions
if viewed through the lens of academics and practitioners drawn
from different geographies, disciplines, or fields of expertise
when addressing particular urban challenges. It is through this
complexity of views that this book seeks to provide a broad
perspective on culture and innovation in the context of global
cities today; and a rich cornucopia of insights from thought
leaders within their respective fields to shape the cities of
tomorrow.
