Overview

What happens when cultural policy turns digital? Digital Transformation and Cultural Policies in Europe analyzes and compares different digital cultural policies of Europe. Through case studies of seven European countries (UK, Germany, Croatia, Sweden, Spain, Norway, and Switzerland) as well as the analysis of EU digital cultural policy, the book investigates what happens when cultural policy gets changed and challenged by digital culture. Based on a thorough discussion of key concepts and analytical perspectives, this collection also offers a unique multi-disciplinary contribution that shows how digital cultural policy is hyperconvergent. These policies contain established ideas of cultural policy – such as democratization, welfare, access, and national, protectionist ideas – brought together within a digital framework, while also adding new cultural policy tools and instruments, such as digital standards, international regulations, directives, etc. The book shows how digital cultural policies are works in progress, struggling to align their aspirations with their effectiveness. Overall, this book provides a valuable tool for understanding the current policy framework of digital culture. It will be of interest not only to scholars and students in cultural and creative industries but also to creative professionals and policy makers.

Reviews

"""This book provides a nuanced and timely account of how digital technologies are affecting cultural policy in different national and supranational contexts. A much-needed, detailed and stimulating contribution to a field in rapid transformation."" Bjarki Valtysson, Department of Arts and Cultural Studies, University of Copenhagen, Denmark ""Based on research from key scholars working across the geographical and regulatory contexts of Europe, this book is sceptical of epochal claims about the helplessness of nation-states in a time of dominant platforms and persuasive about the potential for cultural policy to meet the challenges posed by digital technologies."" David Wright, Centre for Cultural and Media Policy Studies, University of Warwick, UK"
