European cities are contributing to the development of a more
sustainable urban system that is capable of coping with economic
crises, ecological challenges and social disparities in different
nation-states and regions throughout Europe. This book reveals in a
pluralistic way how European cities are generating new approaches
to their sustainable development, and the special contribution of
culture to these processes. It addresses both a deficit of
attention to small and medium-sized cities in the framework of
European sustainable development, and an underestimation of the
role of culture, artistic expression and creativity for integrated
development of the city as a prerequisite to urban sustainability.
On the basis of a broad collection of case studies throughout
Europe, representing a variety of regionally specific cultural
models of sustainable development, the book investigates how
participative culture, community arts, and more generally,
creativity of civic imagination are conducive to the goal of a
sustainable future of small and medium-sized cities. This is an
essential volume for researchers and postgraduate students in urban
studies, cultural studies, cultural geography and urban sociology
as well as for policymakers and practitioners wanting to understand
the specificity of European cities as hubs of innovation,
creativity and artistic industriousness.
