This volume emphasizes the economic aspects of art and culture,
a relatively new field that poses inherent problems for economics,
with its quantitative concepts and tools. Building bridges across
disciplines such as management, art history, art philosophy,
sociology, and law, editors Victor Ginsburgh and David Throsby
assemble chapters that yield new perspectives on the supply and
demand for artistic services, the contribution of the arts sector
to the economy, and the roles that public policies play. With its
focus on culture rather than the arts, Ginsburgh and Throsby bring
new clarity and definition to this rapidly growing area.
Presents coherent summaries of major research in art and culture, a
field that is inherently difficult to characterize with finance
tools and conceptsOffers a rigorous description that avoids common
problems associated with art and culture scholarshipMakes details
about the economics of art and culture accessible to scholars in
fields outside economics
