Arts Management and Cultural Policy Research

This book aims to present concepts, knowledge and institutional settings of arts management and cultural policy research. It offers a representation of arts management and cultural policy research as a field, or a complex assemblage of people, concepts, institutions, and ideas.

"This is an original and highly informative synthesis of a wide-ranging literature that will prove to be of great interest to not only students of cultural policy and arts management and administration, but also to policy-makers." Clive Gray, University of Warwick, UK
