What was Creative Britain? Was it the golden age that Tony Blair vaunted in 2007, or a neoliberal nirvana? In the 21st century, culture the visual and performing arts, museums and galleries, the creative industries have become ever more important to governments, to the economy, and to how people live. Cultural historian Robert Hewison shows how, from Cool Britannia and the Millennium Dome to the Olympics and beyond, Creative Britain rose from the desert of Thatcherism only to fall into the slough of New Labours managerialism.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Etat : Muy bueno. : En 'Cultural Capital: The Rise and Fall of Creative Britain', el historiador Robert Hewison ofrece un análisis profundo de cómo Gran Bretaña perdió su rumbo creativo. Desde la 'Cool Britannia' y el Millennium Dome hasta los Juegos Olímpicos y más allá, Hewison muestra cómo la cultura se convirtió en una mercancía y cómo el managerialismo obsesionado con los objetivos sofocó la creatividad. En respuesta a los fracasos del Nuevo Laborismo y las medidas de austeridad del gobierno de coalición, Hewison aboga por una nueva relación entre la política y las artes.
