Resumen: The book examines the nature of a range of cultural and creative industries (such as film, new media, theatre, galleries, music, design and advertising) and the important similarities and differences between them. It raises the question of whether it is valid to see the cultural and creative industries as the 'leading edge' of innovation and creativity in the contemporary economy, and whether the cultural and creative industries are as innovative and creative as the rest of the economy. The book highlights the role of particular cultural industries within the cultural economy, paying attention to the dynamics of context, organisation and labour process issues. It is particularly critical of the concept of innovation and creativity as a 'magic bullet' in the contemporary economy; the collection offers an alternative conception of the 'field of innovation and creativity' that is embedded in place, and in social and economic networks. This collection brings together international experts to consider key issues and debates from across this developing arena of the global know ledge economy. The book will be useful to students and researchers in the cultural and creative industries, business organisation, management, labour markets and economic geography. It will be of particular interest to geographers, planners, economists and sociologists concerned with the localisation of cultural production. (Font: Introducció)
