This volume presents a collection of writings on the relations
among creativity, culture and development. The editors invited
"like-minded" researchers of creativity from around the world to
share their respective notions of creativity. Given that human
creativity is a potential that can and should be nurtured in the
course of lifespan development and across all cultural backgrounds,
the volume emphasizes the importance of promoting creativity in all
cultures and through societal-educational opportunities, and offers
a venue for the authors to make conceptual, empirical and practical
inquiries into the relations among creativity, development and
culture. The authors represent a varied "mix" of contemporary and
emerging creativity researchers who use different methodologies to
investigate the importance of culture in creativity development and
the reciprocal role of developing creativity and cultural
enrichment. The volume represents an attempt on the part of the
editors and the authors to broaden our current understanding of
creativity in the contexts of human and cultural development, and
in so doing to enhance our understanding of creativity, culture and
development in the contexts of flourishing human and societal
activities. As the first volume in a book series on "Creativity in
the Twenty-First Century", the book invites readers and researchers
to engage in future interdisciplinary and intercultural discourses
and dialogues on the importance of creativity for human and
cultural development.
