Product Description
Review
“John Hartley has put together a remarkably rich and critical volume which discusses creativity creatively, making sense of contemporary dilemmas facing cultural producers and receivers.” Stephen Coleman, Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford
“An innovative look at creative innovation in contemporary information societies and media cultures. These provocative, and often surprising, essays make us rethink the roles that artists, educators, business people, amateurs, governments, and everyday publics play in the creative process.” Lynn Spigel, Professor of Radio/TV/Film, Northwestern University
Product Description
Creative Industries is a daring collection of essays that charts the noisy revolution that is transforming the production, consumption, and understanding of culture in the all–wired era. It brings together seminal essays written across traditional and new media, industry sectors, and national contexts to demonstrate that content still drives a value–neutral, knowledge economy.
- Chronicles the way mass culture is produced, packaged and circulated in a technology–enabled and globalized world
- Draws together, in one accessible volume, seminal essays written across traditional and new media, industry sectors, and national contexts
- Explores the subjects that have come to define the creative industries – including learning services, knowledge clusters, dot.coms, creative cities, networked incubators, the new media, and the shift from the "culture industries" to the "industries of culture"
- Features 31 essays by leading international scholars – covering the creative industries of several fields, including book publishing, TV production, urban development, and games
- Includes substantial editorial introductions by the editor, making this a useful, engaging, and thought–provoking collection of the very best scholarship on modern creative culture.

Creative
2 Oct 2009
Format:Paperback
This is a good selection of writings on the topic of creative work, creative enterprises, and creative industries. It has a strong "down under" identity but that is fine as they have a useful take on the "creative" thesis and a claim on its emergence as a serious focus of inquiry.
