Living territories through culture: An identity approach
This essay discusses a conception of cultural capital based on profiles of cultural identity with a territorial focus. It proposes an operational method for constructing a composite index that represents the stock of cultural capital, regardless of the derived flow of goods and services and, therefore, of the size of the commercial cultural sector. The synthetic cultural capital index aims to be comprehensive in its composition and exhaustive in …
Valuing cultural heritage through non-monetary scales: A comparison
Economic valuation studies of cultural goods have a long history and have gained renewed interest in recent years. This paper poses a methodological challenge as the use of alternative scales to monetary ranges for the valuation of cultural heritage. A renowned archaeological site is taken as a case study, and its use value is estimated through the travel cost method (monetary value) and time spent visiting the site (non-monetary scale). Accordin…
A choice experiment economic valuation of cultural heritage tourism ecosystems
Economic valuation studies of non-market goods in culture and tourism have a long and recognised track record. Many studies focus on evaluating well-defined examples such as monuments, institutions or events, leaving the valuation of cultural heritage tourism ecosystems as an important and less explored challenge. This work addresses the evaluation of a cultural tourist ensemble in which factors such as the natural landscape, elements of tangible…
Performance of cultural heritage institutions: A regional perspective
Most studies on performance evaluation in the cultural sector are based on the efficiency assessment of a network of institutions. Nevertheless, very few works take territorial divisions as the case study. Under this approach, we design a spatial production function which merges several cultural resources in order to optimize the impact of a regional system of cultural institutions in terms of cultural production and use of services provided. The…
Clustering and country destination performance at a global scale: Determining factors of tourism competitiveness
Our aim is to evaluate the efficiency of tourist destinations at a global scale, considering 140 countries and drawing on World Economic Forum 2019 data. The approach follows three stages. First, we try to solve the problem of sample heterogeneity through cluster analysis to obtain homogeneous groups of countries. Second, we apply data envelopment analysis to evaluate countries’ efficiency as tourist destinations, considering a territorially base…
Analysing productivity and technical change in museums: A dynamic network approach
The efficiency evaluation of cultural institutions is proving to be a highly fertile area for theoretical and applied research. Nevertheless, few studies have thus far focused on the dynamic analysis of efficiency and on estimating productivity to gauge how receptive these institutions are to technological progress. The present work provides an approach to these two goals for a sample of public museums in Spain by applying a non-parametric techni…
La investigación en Economía de la cultura en España: Un estudio bibliométrico
Los indicadores bibliométricos responden a la utilidad de medir y evaluar la actividad científica de un determinado campo de estudio. La finalidad de este artículo es aplicar este tipo de instrumentos a una disciplina que cuenta con un creciente reconocimiento como es la economía de la cultura, y analizar su situación en el ámbito académico español. Para ello se toma como objeto de análisis la publicación de artículos en revistas acreditadas por …
Evaluating a Cultural Policy in the Dance Sector. Does Efficiency Always Mean Achieving Goals
This work aims to evaluate cultural policies, specifically in the dance sector, an area which has received scant attention in economic literature so far. Data Envelopment Analysis is applied to evaluate public program performance and the stakeholders involved therein. We select a Spanish public policy supporting dance as case study, which includes public authorities, theaters and dance companies. The former provide the funding while the others of…
Does music soothe the soul? Evaluating the impact of a music education programme in Medellin, Colombia
Reliability of Creative Composite Indicators with Territorial Specification in the EU
There is wide consensus regarding the capacity of the creative economy as a factor in economic development and sustainability in regions in the medium term, and it is an issue that has aroused interest in measuring the creative potential of areas by estimating composite indicators. Most works posit indicators by countries or cities and normally employ a single aggregation method. This work proposes the construction of a synthetic indicator of cre…
A Spatial–Temporal Analysis of Cultural and Creative Industries with Micro-Geographic Disaggregation
Recent years have witnessed growing interest in studying the spatial distribution of cultural and creative industries (CCI), both for their contribution to economic development and for their impact on spatial planning and remodeling of urban structure. However, spatial interdependence and diffusion of agglomeration economies have not been explained enough so far, due to the use of aggregate spatial units. This paper examines CCI sector location p…

Evaluating the efficiency of museums using multiple outputs: Evidence from a regional system of museums in Spain
Data Envelopment Analysis is used to evaluate museum efficiency. This approach enables us to create a relative efficiency measure for each museum, taking into account resources used by museums and the performance of their activities based on four well-defined tasks: conservation, research, communication and exhibition. Empirical analysis of data from a regional museum system in Spain is performed, considering a complex production function with se…
Evaluating intangible cultural heritage: The case of cultural festivals
Repercusiones económicas y sociales de los festivales culturales: El caso del Festival Internacional de Cine de Valdivia
Hoy, y debido a sus repercusiones en los territorios, la cultura y los festivales culturales forman parte de las estrategias de desarrollo local y regional, y de las actuaciones de regeneracin urbana. Tales repercusiones pueden ser de carcter social, cultural, turstico o econmico, ya que la cultura genera impactos en trminos de produccin, rentas y empleos. En este marco, el objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la contribucin econmica del Festival…
Using contingent valuation and cost-benefit analysis to design a policy for restoring cultural heritage

The Economic Impact of Cultural Events: A Case-Study of Salamanca 2002, European Capital of Culture
The artistic and cultural activities have not only a key cultural and social value, but also an undeniable economic impact. Indeed, it is a fact that the cultural sector represents a productive branch which is growing in importance. The cultural factor is frequently used as a key element for regional and/or economic development. In this vein, this article aims to estimate the economic impact of Salamanca 2002 as the European Capital of Culture, u…
