America's cultural capital : Recommendations for structuring the federal role
Publication details: Washington DC : Center for Arts and Culture, 2001Description: 16 fSummary: This paper, the first in the series, focuses on four structural recommendations that are intended to improve federal policymaking in these areas. The Center offers these for discussion, debate, and further refinement. We recommend that: • The President establish a mechanism to advise and coordinate cultural affairs in the Executive Office of the President. • The Department of State establish an Under Secretary for Cultural Affairs. • Congress develop more comprehensive and integrated approaches to policies affecting cultural affairs. • Congress and the President create a National Forum on Creativity and Cultural Heritage. Policymaking at the federal level relevant to the arts, humanities, and cultural preservation often has been fragmented and fitful. The Center’s four proposals aim to create focal points for cultural policies within government that will be better informed, better integrated, and, above all, more suitably aligned with the demands of a global, knowledge-based society.
