Persistent Creativity: Making the Case for Art, Culture and the Creative Industries by Peter Campbell, Palgrave Macmillan.
Keywords:
creative industries policy, creativity agenda, cultural policyAbstract
Campbell’s book explores the persistence of creativity as a driver in cultural policy and planning. It considers its deployment in the case-making for arts, culture and creative industries in the UK and exposes definitional ambiguities and contradictions surrounding the term ‘creative’. Within this argument, the author raises concerns about the boundaries of sector statistics and the role of programmes such as cities of culture in promoting and reinforcing this mythological and enduring narrative of social and economic impact.
