Cultural and creative actors in non-urban areas: Enacting local stewardship as a regenerative approach
Cultural and creative actors in non-urban areas contribute to local regenerative actions through practices of stewardship and place-based creativity. This article focuses on how a key principle of regenerative development, “stewardship of the resources of place, identity, and unique potential,” is conceived and enacted. The study aims to deepen understanding of how regenerative forms of local development that nurture social, cultural, and ecologi…
The Structure and Dynamics of Creative Tourism: An ePortfolio Approach
Contributing to limited knowledge of creative tourism product development and operationalization processes in small cities and rural areas, ePortfolios were used as an online fieldnote depository for photographs and texts, which were entered by geographically dispersed researchers within the CREATOUR research-and-application project. The ePortfolios, as a type of research diary, record and examine the ways in which 48 different creative tourism a…
Collective and collaborative cultural entrepreneurship based on emergent placemaking in rural areas
Cultural actors are increasingly significant in non-urban areas, but little research exists on how placemaking initiatives, creative practices and cultural entrepreneurship intersect to foster local development in these regions. Drawing on case studies from Ireland and Iceland, this article investigates the multifaceted roles of cultural actors in driving innovative actions and revitalising non-urban areas. The analysis highlights the significanc…

Culture–tourism entanglements: Moving From Grassroots Practices to Regenerative Cultural Policies in Smaller Communities
Inspired by a rapidly emerging shift towards ‘regenerative tourism’ that privileges local improvement and well-being, this article considers the close connections between cultural initiatives and tourism in smaller communities and the often-missing policy frameworks to acknowledge and support these for community benefit. In practice, socio-cultural entrepreneurs develop enmeshed culture–tourism activities frequently propelled by ideas and desires…
Cultural policy actions towards urban sustainability: Research and practice collaborations
Creative tourism: Activating cultural resources and engaging creative travellers
This book provides a synthesis of current research and international best practice, including practitioner perspectives and a range of case study examples. It covers types of creative tourist, trends, designing and implementing creative tourism products, embedding activities in a community and place, and addressing sustainability challenges.
Cultural Sustainability, Tourism and Development: (Re)articulations in Tourism Contexts
this chapter reflects upon the contradictions of the process of globalization and localization through an analysis of the relation between tourism and migration as two interrelated phenomena concerning human mobility. Through a cultural perspective on responsible tourism, it aims to shed light on how tourism plays an essential role in local development processes, as well as in the social and spatial dialectic that gives meaning to places (Rojek a…
Why is research-practice collaboration so challenging to achieve? A creative tourism experiment
Within tourism research, there has been little attention to research–practice knowledge exchange during the research process nor to practice-based research. This article examines a research-and-application project on creative tourism in which research–practice collaboration is explicitly foregrounded and made central. Through a reflexive process, the challenges this hybrid approach embodies and the pragmatic dilemmas that accompany the complexiti…
Cultural and creative work in rural and remote areas: An emerging international conversation
This article reports on the themes and trajectories of a multidisciplinary and international literature. It reveals how cultural and creative work in rural and remote areas has largely been examined and articulated through three storylines: (1) cultural vitality, that is, culture as a resource for community development; (2) the ‘rural creative class’, recently linked to rural innovation; and (3) rural creative economies and creative entrepreneurs…
Cultural Mapping
Cultural mapping is a mode of inquiry and a methodological tool that aims to make visible the ways local stories, practices, relationships, memories, and rituals constitute places as meaningful locations. Although there is still a fuzziness to the boundaries of this field, cultural mapping has generally evolved along two main branches: The first begins with cultural assets, seeking to identify and document tangible and intangible assets of a plac…
Cultural policies for sustainable development: Four strategic paths
In the Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the United Nations in 2015, the role of culture is limited. We argue that culture’s absence is rooted in the longue durée of interplay among theoretical and policy debates on culture in sustainable development and on cultural policy since the mid-twentieth century. In response to variations in concepts and frameworks used in advocacy, policy, and academia, we propose four roles cultural policy can p…

Creative tourism: Catalysing artisan entrepreneur networks in rural Portugal
Purpose Given limited research about how artisans become integrated into tourism, the purpose of this paper is to investigate the emergence of artisan entrepreneur–mediators who link artisans to tourism in rural areas and small cities in Portugal. Using social embeddedness as a conceptual framework, this paper views artisan entrepreneur–mediators as existing within an entrepreneurial ecosystem. The paper investigates their role within this ecosys…
A Research Agenda for Creative Tourism
Original and thought-provoking, this book investigates how creative experiences, interactions, and place-specific dynamics and contexts combine to give shape to the expanding field of creative tourism across the globe. Exploring the evolution of research in this field, the authors investigate pathways for future research that advance conceptual questions and pragmatic issues
Artistic Approaches to Cultural Mapping: Activating Imaginaries and Means of Knowing
Introduction: Cultural policies for sustainable development
Sustainable development has long conceptual roots, and international organisations have played a significant role in articulating the meaning of the term and the content of the dominant discourses. Within these frames, the concept of cultural sustainability tends to be diversely defined and operationalized. This article and special issue examine culture and sustainable development in ways that articulate and contemplate different roles for cultur…

The Routledge Research Companion to Planning and Culture
In this chapter, we provide an overview of key international cultural governance/policy initiatives and assess the main linkages that have developed with local cultural planning. Our examination of the policy threads encompasses three thematic areas: heritage; creative industries and creative cities; and culture, sustainability, and diversity. We look at how various global governance instruments are incorporated within these three thematic areas,…

Citizens’ participation in the Italian health‐care system: The experience of the Mixed Advisory Committees
Background In 1994, the region of Emilia‐Romagna recognized the importance of citizens’ participation in the regional health‐care system and recommended the institution of Mixed Advisory Committees in the health districts and hospitals with the objective of monitoring and assessing health‐care quality from the users’ perspective. Design This paper reports findings from a qualitatively based evaluation involving direct observations of the committe…
Measuring cultural value in Canada: From national commissions to a culture satellite account
In Canada, government initiatives for the measurement of cultural value can be traced to the 1949 Royal Commission on National Development in Arts, Letters and Sciences, and later evolved to include more empirical measurement with the Culture Statistics Program (1972) as well as research into the social dimensions of cultural investment. In 2009, Statistics Canada launched a four-year Feasibility Study to culminate in the creation of a Canadian C…

Em torno da cidade criativa
A mudança do milénio trouxe consigo a importância crescente das indústrias ancoradas na cultura e na criatividade. Este facto alimentou um desejo internacional – que, na verdade, é recorrentemente encarado como um imperativo incontornável – que motiva as áreas urbanas a quererem tornar se “cidades criativas”. A própria UNESCO fomentou este fenómeno ao criar a Rede das Cidades Criativas. Nas cidades criativas, conceito que emergiu e se consolidou …
Making Connections: Cultural and Social Cohesion in the New Millennium
An important stream of cultural policy thinking in recent years has concerned the cluster of public policy interests often subsumed within the term "social cohesion," yet conceptual and analytical examination of the linkages between social cohesion and culture (and, by extension, cultural policy) is young and underdeveloped. To address this situation, cultural researchers from Canada and Europe came together in Edmonton, Alberta, May 26-27, 2000,…

Introduction: Culture and Sustainable Communities
The wide-spread shift to a sustainability paradigm for city planning makes this an important point in time to identify opportunities to integrate cultural considerations into broader sustainability policy and planning initiatives and to align cultural planning to community sustainability approaches and goals. In both cases, strengthening the connections between growing intercultural realities and sustainable community development is required. Thi…
