Reed and Nicolai Volland -- Glossary. 330 $aFrom the late nineteenth- to the mid-twentieth century, changing technologies and growing transregional ties provided unprecedented opportunities for the entrepreneurially minded in China and Southeast Asia. The Business of Culture examines the rise of Chinese "cultural entrepreneurs," businesspeople who risked financial well-being and reputation by investing in multiple cultural enterprises in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Rich in biographical detail, the interlinked case studies featured in this volume introduce three distinct archetypes: the cultural personality, the tycoon, and the collective enterprise. These portraits reveal how changes in social and economic conditions created the fertile soil for business success; conditions that are similar to those emerging in China today. 410 0$aContemporary Chinese studies. 606 $aCultural industries$zChina$vCase studies 606 $aCultural industries$zSoutheast Asia$vCase studies 606 $aBusinesspeople$zChina$vCase studies 607 $aChina$xEconomic conditions$y20th century$vCase studies 607 $aSoutheast Asia$xEconomic conditions$y20th century$vCase studies 607 $aChina$2fast 607 $aSoutheast Asia$2fast 615 0$aCultural industries 615 0$aCultural industries 615 0$aBusinesspeople 676 $a338.47700951 702 $aRea$b Christopher 702 $aVolland$b Nicolai 702 $aWang$b Gungwu 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787137303321 996 $aThe business of culture$93836276 997 $aUNINA
