We then super-impose maps of public transport nodes/facilities over our venue maps to present empirical evidence on the possibilities and limitations of these two different policy approaches.

However, how the ludic potential can inform urban design has been significantly underexplored.

Through descriptive and thematic analyses, the review identifies key characteristics of ludic activities, examines their impacts on urban actors, and outlines strategies to integrate ludic activities in urban design.

Attempts to mobilise universities as agents in regional creative economies via University-Industry R&D programmes have intensified in recent decades, with over £276 million invested since 2012 in programmes such as the AHRC's Creative Industries Clusters Programme, CoSTAR, XRtists and UKRI's Strength in Places Fund. This paper unpacks the imaginaries and mechanics of such projects to show how universities have become complicit in a political shift that positions innovation, knowledge exchange and technological capability as the most valuable forms of ‘creativity’, rather than other artistic, social, or cultural practices. We examine the often-inflexible structures of partnership, resourcing and knowledge hierarchies within higher education institutions (HEIs) that delimit the potential of universities as agents in regional creative economies. We explore how creative sector-facing practices performed by universities, such as knowledge exchange, performance measurement and administrative procedures, can reproduce an exclusionary and extractive vision of creative economies. Lastly, we consider what alternative practices of intermediation may exist to support a more progressive role for HEIs in the creative economy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39061,"journal":{"name":"City, Culture and Society","volume":"41 ","pages":"Article 100637"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144124744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is a noticeable scarcity of empirical studies exploring the engagement of private actors in the politics of urban public space in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly within Yoruba society. This paper seeks to address this gap by investigating the privatisation of public space and its implications in Ile-Ife, a traditional Yoruba city in Nigeria. Employing a qualitative approach involving a systematic literature review, interviews and field observations, this paper reveals that the Yoruba city is experiencing the issues of over-management and under-management of public space, as highlighted in the Western homogenisation theory. Nevertheless, in contrast to the Western theory, privatisation does not result in the decline of publicness and sociability of public spaces in the Yoruba society. Key aspects of privatisation, such as commercialisation and controlled access, are integral to the traditional concepts of open space in Yorubaland. Findings show that privately owned spaces within gated communities and establishments, such as schools, hotels, hospitals, shopping complexes, churches, mosques, bars, and restaurants, support social and leisure activities. The emergence of contemporary public spaces does not alter the local concepts and meanings associated with social spaces. This paper argues that the Western framework for public space management is not entirely applicable in the traditional Yoruba context, emphasising the necessity for a contextual approach to public space planning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39061,"journal":{"name":"City, Culture and Society","volume":"41 ","pages":"Article 100638"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
