This book provides a novel approach to the understanding and realization of the values of art. It argues that art has often been instrumentalized for state-building, to promote social inclusion of diversity, or for economic purposes such as growth or innovation. To counteract that, the authors study the values that artists and audiences seek to realize in the social practices around the arts. They develop the concept of cultural civil society to analyze how art is practiced and values are realized in creative circles and co-creative communities of spectators. The insights are illustrated with case-studies about hip-hop, Venetian art collectives, dance festivals, science-fiction fandom, and a queer museum. The authors provide a four-stage scheme that illustrates how values are realized in a process of value orientation, imagination, realization, and evaluation.The book relies on an interdisciplinary approach rooted in economics and sociology of the arts, with an appreciation forbroader social theories. It integrates these disciplines in a pragmatic approach based on the work of John Dewey and more recent neo-pragmatist work to recover the critical and constructive role that cultural civil society plays in a plural and democratic society. The authors conclude with a new perspective on cultural policy, centered around state neutrality towards the arts and aimed at creating a legal and social framework in which social practices around the arts can flourish and co-exist peacefully.

This book explores the concept of ‘dissent’ within the realm of art and cultural heritage through a rich and multidisciplinary lens. It investigates how dissent shapes the very definition of cultural heritage and the systems that govern cultural heritage, drawing primarily on social science perspectives. Combining methodologies from law and economics with insights from museology, art history, and postcolonial studies, the volume offers a unique perspective on how disagreement and contestation can redefine cultural value and authority.The first part, “Dissent as Contestation,” starts from the observation that the very value of cultural heritage has always been contested. It focuses on cultural heritage found in public spaces, where the contestation over its value is exacerbated. This raises questions concerning, for example, the subjects called upon to finance the preservation of their own cultural heritage and the creation of new cultural activities and, therefore, the relationship between public and private actors. The role of dissent, moreover, can play a major role – now more than ever – in the re-interpretation of values traditionally attached to specific cultural objects.The second part, “Dissent as Reinvention,” addresses dissent-related practices. Practices that, through episodes of conflict and contrast, manage to create new methods and new procedures for the governance of heritage and cultural activities. The chapters cover specific case studies dealing with local experiences or specific media of expression and explore how dissent can lead to paradigm shifts. Moreover, they consider whether and how certain institutional bodies, such as international organizations or local policymakers, have (or have not) put in place mechanisms to accommodate, listen to, and reflect possible episodes of dissent among relevant stakeholders.The third part, “Dissent as Regulation,” focuses on issues concerning the regulation of the cultural and heritage sector. The chapters discuss how to adopt political or legal decisions when there is disagreement concerning different options. They explore at what level of the decision-making process dissent should be taken into consideration (or prevented) and which branch of power – legislative, executive, or judiciary – is most affected by issues concerning dissent.

Realising the Value of Culture brings together international scholars to explore how values shape economies, organizations, and societies. It provides conceptual framing and tools for those seeking to align their practices with economic, cultural, and societal values.The chapters in this collection bridge cultural economics, sociology, cultural studies, and urban studies to present an alternative to standard economic perspectives centred on price, profit, and efficiency. Foregrounding qualities – thequality of work, environment, and community – this book offers new methods to evaluate and realise cultural and social values. Its theoretical and methodological contributions include the conceptualisation of value realisation, the commons as shared practices, and the evaluation of impact through qualitative dimensions. Drawing on examples from the arts, crafts, cultural heritage, education, management, and urban development, it demonstrates how the value-based approach can inform circular, creative, and sharing economies.Aimed at undergraduates, postgraduates, scholars, and practitioners – such as cultural managers, creatives, urban planners, policy-makers, and organizational leaders – this book offers an insightful framework for understanding the dynamic interrelations between individuals, institutions, and the communities they serve. The book functions as both a practical manual and an inspiration for continued research and application.
