One of the key policy tools they have turned to is land value capture, which allows greater height and density on new high-rise developments in exchange for social benefits. This study takes up the case of Vancouver, Canada where land value capture has been used to fund the arts through the city's Community Amenity Contributions (CAC) program. To examine the impact and evolution of Vancouver's CAC program, I use qualitative case studies of three major redevelopments in the 2010 decade that leveraged CACs to fund the arts, alongside planning documents and community reports. My findings show that the city helped arts organizations secure increasingly stable infrastructure, approving funding to purchase their buildings, cover long-term operating costs, and to build artist housing through a community land trust. At the same time, the arts community reported a significant loss of space in the private market, often in areas experiencing intense development pressure. Through the case of Vancouver, I show that land value capture leads to a paradoxical outcome—the same policy mechanism that protects artists from the market, relies on increasing property values that contribute to arts displacement. I conclude by suggesting that land value capture should be paired with protective policies for arts spaces that intervene on real estate speculation to avoid a net loss.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39061,"journal":{"name":"City, Culture and Society","volume":"43 ","pages":"Article 100651"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145424686","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}

In the Philippines, this global trend intersects with local dynamics. While the state promotes policies to attract foreign digital nomads and builds a cultural economy around their presence, digital nomadism is also emerging as an appealing path for Filipino online freelancers. As one of the world’s largest providers of labor to cloudwork platforms, the Philippines offers a critical vantage point for understanding how digital nomadism is locally practiced and reimagined, and the dynamics of their social relations. This paper explores the social infrastructures -- both lifestyle and transactional -- that sustain and are shaped by the interactions between foreign and local digital nomads in the Philippines. It pays attention to the racialized and classed dynamics that structure these communities, revealing how global mobility and local precarity coexist in shared spaces. Drawing on ethnographic interviews with Filipino digital nomads, field observations in physical hubs across the country, and analysis of digital nomad content on social media, this study contributes to broader conversations on the socio-technical ecosystems underpinning digital labor.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39061,"journal":{"name":"City, Culture and Society","volume":"43 ","pages":"Article 100667"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145332181","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}

Using IMPACD as a case study, the research examines challenges including inadequate funding, undervalued creative labour, displacement, and policy misalignments, alongside commitments to inclusion and community engagement. Despite these obstacles, IMPACD employs arts-based practices to combat social exclusion, inequality, and loneliness, demonstrating the potential of creative social enterprises to address marginalisation. While they cannot fully dismantle systemic exclusion, these organisations raise awareness and offer tangible support to marginalised communities. The study highlights the need for greater support and recognition, advocating policies and financial frameworks that enable creative social enterprises to expand their social and cultural impact, contributing to sustainable and inclusive urban environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39061,"journal":{"name":"City, Culture and Society","volume":"43 ","pages":"Article 100676"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145525674","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}

This research explores how geofenced storytelling shapes visitor movement, cultural engagement, and tourism experiences. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines ethnographic fieldwork with quantitative analysis of user interactions. Findings show that tourists engaging with geofenced narratives are 60 % more likely to visit lesser-known cultural sites, fostering decentralized and participatory tourism. Visitors emphasize the role of immersive storytelling in strengthening their sense of place. However, challenges include geolocation accuracy, content curation, and balancing local representation with visitor expectations. This study situates geofenced storytelling within broader debates on digital placemaking, participatory tourism, and sustainable heritage management. While digital tools can enhance cultural interpretation and diversify tourism experiences, their effectiveness depends on inclusive content, local collaboration, and integration into tourism policies.

Conceptually, it builds on two major frameworks. The first is a processual approach to narration as a fundamental act of organising reality. It emphasises unification or the organisation of different layers or elements into a coherent narrative. The second is a performative approach to translation as acts of re-narration. It highlights multiplication or how a policy narrative can be translated into multi-directional, even competing, policy acts across contexts. Empirically, the article examines the narrative form and accomplishment of the Creative City as it was taken up in Vietnam through the designation of Hanoi as a member of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN). The analysis shows both possibilities and limitations of ‘splashing’ acts that sought to engage with the narrative in ways that could move beyond the frequently criticised power structures that set the travelling narrative in motion.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39061,"journal":{"name":"City, Culture and Society","volume":"42 ","pages":"Article 100654"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144911546","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}
