Urban regeneration projects and the role of municipal officials: A strategy-as-practice perspective
Urban regeneration projects are increasingly used as cities face complex problems and challenges involving economic, social, and environmental issues. Such projects are marked by considerable complexity given the variety of actors involved and the diversity of their claims. A challenge, however, emerges as to how engage such actors and integrate their varied inputs with various administrative and organizational constraints, leading projects that …
Spazi collaborativi: Un Nuovo Modo Di Lavorare Ma Con Radici Profonde Nelle Istituzioni Locali
Collaborative spaces are capturing growing interest of scholars from different disciplines, but their studies tend to be mainly focused on the analysis of the organization and cooperative mechanisms within these spaces rather than on the territorial embeddedness of these collaborative spaces. This paper aims at investigating how collaborative spaces can be influenced by their social and economic context. In order to achieve this, it presents the …

City context and subjective career success: How does creative workers’ need for recognition filter city identity
How do creative workers draw on their city context as they interpret their subjective career success over time? This article aims to answer this question with a qualitative study of 140 creative workers in Reggio Emilia, Italy. The results illuminate how subjective career success stems from a need for recognition that draws on a city’s identity. Mobilising Lotman’s concept of semiosphere, we propose that creative workers use city identity to unde…
Need for space. How artists rely on space to face precarious work conditions
Artistic labour markets present some features that can be considered paradigmatic of work in the contemporary gig economy. Extant literature identified these features by focusing on how artists can be deemed exemplars of new and more flexible ways of organising a workforce. While studies examined workers' conditions in contemporary economy, the literature on artistic work has not delved into the role of space in artist's work experience. Thus, th…
Embeddedness and locational choices: A study of creative workers in a dance organisation
Locational choices of creative workers have been a matter of heated debate over the last decade. This study proposes a micro perspective aimed at disentangling how the individual decision-making process behind locational choices is activated and develops over time. To this aim, we combine previous geographic research on the issue with research on the role of organisational factors in workers’ attraction and retention. Empirically, we carried out …
The role of social identification and hedonism in affecting tourist re-patronizing behaviours: The case of an Italian festival
New trends of managerial roles in performing arts: Empirical evidence from the Italian context
Since the 1990s the Italian performing arts sector has been characterized by juridical, social and economic changes, due, for instance, to new technologies, increasing environmental competition and contamination among different artistic realities. These new trends have increased the industry's complexity and forced organizations to undertake processes of internal reorganization. In particular, Italian organizations have faced such challenges thro…
Cultural districts and the challenge of authenticity: The case of Piedmont, Italy
Despite the globalizing nature of contemporary cultural artefacts, in many cases creativity seems to be still very much grounded in local geographic, social and economic contexts. In particular, many authors have recently highlighted the increasing relevance of local cultural districts. This article tries to investigate how and why certain public policies could be more effective in developing an area into a cultural district. In doing so, we will…
Reputation and Strength of Ties in Predicting Commercial Success and Artistic Merit of Independents in the Italian Feature Film Industry
We investigate what factors are required in order to succeed in project‐based cultural industries. In particular, we focus on the effects of relational stability and reputation on two key dimensions of movies’ success: commercial success and artistic merit. We combine the two dimensions of films’ performance for a more accurate understanding of how authenticity and artistic merit are manufactured in the movie industry. We examine this question by…
