NEW 'Hanbook of Creative Cities' out now...
With the publication of The Rise of the Creative Class by
Richard Florida in 2002, the ‘creative city’ became the
new hot topic among urban policymakers, planners and
economists. Florida has developed one of three pathbreaking
theories about the relationship between creative
individuals and urban environments. The economist Åke
E. Andersson and the psychologist Dean Simonton are the
other members of this ‘creative troika’. In the Handbook of
Creative Cities, Florida, Andersson and Simonton appear in
the same volume for the first time. The expert contributors
in this timely Handbook extend their insights with a varied
set of theoretical and empirical tools. The diversity of the
contributions reflect the multidisciplinary nature of creative
city theorizing, which encompasses urban economics,
economic geography, social psychology, urban sociology,
and urban planning. The stated policy implications are equally diverse, ranging from
libertarian to social democratic visions of our shared creative and urban future.
