REPORT


New Directions in Cultural Policy Research Series Editors: Eleonora Belfiore, University of Warwick, UK and Anna Upchurch, University of Leeds, UK New Directions in Cultural Policy Research encourages theoretical and empirical research which enriches and develops the field of cultural policy studies. Since its emergence in the 1990s, the academic field of cultural policy studies has expanded globally as the arts and popular culture have been re-positioned by city, regional, and national governments, and international bodies, from the margins to the centre of social and economic development in both rhetoric and practice. The series invites contributions in any of the following: national and international cultural policies, arts policies, the politics of culture, cultural industries policies (the ‘traditional’ arts such as performing and visual arts, crafts), creative industries policies (digital, social media, broadcasting and film, and advertising), urban regeneration and urban cultural policies, regional cultural policies, the politics of cultural and creative labour, the production and consumption of popular culture, arts education policies, cultural heritage and tourism policies, and the history and politics of media policies. The series will reflect current and emerging concerns of the field such as cultural value, community cultural development, cultural diversity, cultural sustainability, planning for the intercultural city, cultural planning, and cultural citizenship.
