An interesting new book on the global economy of culture has come out which might be interesting to explore.
“The book Global Cultural Economy critically interrogates the role cultural and creative industries play in societies. By locating these industries in their broader cultural and economic contexts, Christiaan De Beukelaer and Kim-Marie Spence combine their repertoires of empirical work across four continents to define ‘cultural economy’ as the system of production, distribution and consumption of cultural goods and services, and to discuss the cultural, economic, social and political contexts in which it operates. The book is written for students, researchers and policy-makers, interested in the creative and cultural industries, media and cultural studies, cultural policy and development studies.”
By Christiaan De Beukelaer and Kim-Marie Spence, Routledge, 2019, 184 pages.
