Overview
This volume is a compilation by one of the most experienced editors in the field of published articles on cultural economics. It includes articles on both the 'traditional' fare of cultural economics - economics of cultural policy, the performing arts, museums and heritage, and artists labour markets - and extends the scope to the economics of creative industries and copyright, topics that are now at the heart of cultural policy. The articles (with one exception) have all been published in the last 10 years and the aim of the book is to bring readers up to date on cultural economics in a range of related fields: cultural and social policy, sociology of the arts and culture, arts management, indeed, anyone with an interest in the 'creative economy'.
Recent Developments in Cultural Economics is ideal for undergraduates studying any of these subjects and is essential reading for postgraduates and teachers of cultural economics.
