Identity and Cultural Policy --Notes on ContributorsThe arts and creative sector is one of the nation's broadest, most important, and least understood social and economic assets, encompassing both nonprofit arts and cultural organizations, for-profit creative companies, such as advertising agencies, film producers, and commercial publishers, and community-based artistic activities. The thirteen essays in this timely book demonstrate why interest in the arts and creative sector has accelerated in recent years, and the myriad ways that the arts are crucial to the social and national agenda and the critical issues and policies that relate to their practice. Leading experts in the field show, for example, how arts and cultural policies are used to enhance urban revitalization, to encourage civic engagement, to foster new forms of historic preservation, to define national identity, to advance economic development, and to regulate international trade in cultural goods and services. Illuminating key issues and reflecting the rapid growth of the field of arts and cultural policy, this book will be of interest to students at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, to arts educators and management professionals, government agency and foundation officials, and researchers and academics in the cultural policy field.Rutgers series on the public life of the arts.Arts and societyUnited StatesCultural industriesUnited StatesArt patronageUnited StatesGovernment aid to the artsUnited StatesArtsUnited StatesManagementUnited StatesCultural policyElectronic books.Arts and societyCultural industriesArt patronageGovernment aid to the artsArtsManagement.700.1/030973Cherbo Joni Maya1941-1038671Stewart Ruth Ann1942-1038672Wyszomirski Margaret Jane1038673MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453585303321Understanding the arts and creative sector in the United States2460407UNINA
