This insightful book offers a new way of looking at the arts,
culture and the creative industries from the perspective of
evolutionary economics.The creative industries are key drivers of
modern economies. While economic analysis has traditionally
advanced a market-failure model of arts and culture, this book
argues for an evolutionary market dynamics or innovation-based
approach. Jason Potts explores theoretical and conceptual aspects
of an evolutionary economic approach to the study of the creative
economy. Topics include creative businesses and labor markets,
social networks, innovation processes and systems, institutions,
and the role of creative industries in market dynamics and economic
growth. Written by a leading academic expert in the field, this
highly regarded compendium will prove essential for researchers and
students of creative industries, cultural economics and
evolutionary economics. Contents: 1. Introduction; 2. Cultural
