This interdisciplinary book adopts a multi-level approach to understanding creative cities. David Emanuel Andersson draws on concepts of cultural individualism, generators of diversity and openness to experience to inform policy recommendations.Andersson utilises a micro-meso-macro framework to examine creative cities, providing illustrative case studies from fields including geography, economics, political science and urban planning. At the micro level, he explores personality traits and environmental stimuli; at the meso level, neighbourhood attributes; and at the macro level, cultural values and institutions. Chapters also consider spatial design across each level of the framework and are informed by the contributions of Jane Jacobs and Jan Gehl. Ultimately, the author underscores the importance of smaller, intimate spaces and fragmented, decentralized planning in the cultivation of adaptability, creativity and bottom-up entrepreneurship.Understanding Creative Cities will be greatly beneficial to scholars and students of human geography, urban design, urban planning, urban studies and the social sciences, including economics, politics and sociology. It is also a vital resource for city and municipal policymakers and urban planners interested in cultivating creative cities.

The Economics of Experiences, the Arts and Entertainment serves as a welcome and unique introduction to various economic aspects of the production and consumption of art and entertainment products. The book begins with analyses and discussion of neoclassical production and utility functions, with a focus on art and entertainment as instances of experience goods or services. The authors then go on to present alternative Austrian and institutional approaches which focus on the role of creative entrepreneurs in the market process. Aesthetic and psychological theories are also discussed with a focus on their impact on producers' and consumers' decisions, as well as historical examples of creative centres, such as Renaissance Florence and Post World War II New York.One important conclusion reached in the book is that there is no economically meaningful way to distinguish art from entertainment, if such a distinction is to be based on the inherent qualities of products. Instead, an analysis of the activities of interest groups, politicians and other gatekeepers to the world of the arts serves to illuminate how a designation as art serves to abolish market prices and suppress competition, in contrast to the much less distorted market for entertainment products.David and Ake E. Andersson's path-breaking book will appeal to scholars and researchers at all levels of academe involved in economics, public sector economics and those with a special interest in art and/or entertainment. Public and private sector managers, planners and administrators in various art and entertainment industries will also find much to engage them within this book.
