The Routledge Companion to the Cultural Industries is collection of
contemporary scholarship that seeks to re-assert the importance of
cultural production and consumption against the purely economic
imperatives of the 'creative industries'. Across 43 chapters drawn
from a wide range of geographic and disciplinary perspectives, this
comprehensive volume offers a critical and empirically informed
examination of the contemporary cultural industries. A range of
industries are explored, from video games to art galleries, all the
time focussing on the culture that is being produced and its wider
symbolic and socio-cultural meaning. Individual chapters consider
their industrial structure, the policy that governs them, their
geography, the labour that produces them, and the meaning they
offer to consumers and participants. The collection also explores
the historical dimension of cultural industry debates, providing
context for new readers, as well as critical orientation for those
more familiar with the subject. Questions of industry structure,
labour, place, international development, consumption, and
regulation are all explored in terms of their historical trajectory
and potential future direction. By assessing the current challenges
facing the cultural industries, this collection provides students
and researchers with an essential guide to key ideas, issues,
concepts, and debates in the field.
