The Routledge Companion to the Cultural Industries is collection of
contemporary scholarship on the cultural industries and 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 cultural industries
are explored, from videogames 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 of contemporary
scholarship provides students and researchers with an essential
guide to key ideas, issues, concepts and debates in the field.
