This paper tries to detail sources of funding for the arts and heritage in France coming from the State, local authorities but also companies and households, showing that the part of the State is not the largest one. Nonetheless, it is vital for cultural institutions to rely on this public funding as it can be considered as a lever for other funding. And despite the official reassuring speech in France, we can fear that public funding is going to decrease for the coming years.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69755855","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}

We are now witnessing the rise and fall of the ‘Creative Economy’ which has emerged in the past 15 years through neoliberal policies. New hope to revive the economy is envisioned in the ‘Digital Economy’, where policies intend to place digital innovation at the heart of economic growth. In order to participate in the digital economy, arts organizations are pushed to become ‘digital organizations’. The Digital Economy presents a number of opportunities and challenges for the cultural sector including standardizing and professionalizing the digital delivery of cultural content, finding new economic models through digital, monetising digital content and building digital knowledge, skills and resources in the sector. What is lost in the new policies is a value in the creative practice that supports experimentation and risk-taking, which is where true innovation takes place. There is a need to re-think the entire cultural and economic system today in the face of a global economic crisis. Despite depreciating funding for the arts, new possibilities can be found in ideas and practices of digital culture and the digital arts.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2012-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69755783","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}

The “Value for Money Approach” has played a relevant role in influencing these changes for non-profit cultural organisations. This paper specifically considers one kind of management tool: performance measurement (PM) systems. Their goal is to give to the management quantitative and qualitative information that can guide strategic choices in the long-term. We will analyze the possibilities of application of a good PM system in cultural organisations, with particular focus on theatres. More precisely, the aim of this work is to verify and discuss opportunities and critical points implied by the introduction of a PM system in theatres. Our research starts with an analysis of the theoretical framework of PM systems and theatre management. The theoretical approach is supported by the reference to a specific case study analysed in this paper, the Municipal Theatre of Ferrara (Italy), and to other case studies provided by the literature in arts and cultural management.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2012-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69756060","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}

The paper utilizes frame analysis to investigate the nature and objectives of digital diplomacy in the political context of the UK. The study argues that the UK as a part of the European Community successfully employs in its diplomatic discourse five rhetorical policy frames developed and promoted by UNESCO and European Commission. These frames help the UK to identify its own diplomatic goals with the international priorities of cultural development and, as a result, aid the country to project its positive image to the outside world. These policy frames include: preservation of cultural heritage, access to creative content, protection of cultural diversity, strengthening intercultural dialogue, as well as fostering development and the creative economy. The study reveals that despite the interactive and participative potential of digital diplomacy to facilitate cross-cultural cooperation, the UK digital diplomacy hardly goes beyond traditional cultural promotion.

This article looks at the origins of Agenda 21 and raises questions about its relationship with the challenges facing cultural and arts organizations, the different definitions of the term “culture,” and the distinction between high and popular culture.

It presents the strategic partnership between MUAS and Mikkeli Theatre as one form of collaboration in work-based pedagogy. As a conclusion it can be said that requirements of working-life and the main tasks of the University of Applied Sciences put a great deal of pressure onto professional education. In response to these demands new pedagogical models must be developed and researched. Compared to traditional classroom teaching, work-based pedagogy has changed the context of assignments, evaluation and the schedule of the studies. It has also laid more emphasis on the collaborational relationships between students, teachers and working-life.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69755875","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}

The world is living a structural crisis, a crisis that is based on the lack of reliability of the current social, economic and political systems. The majority of the cultural actors, as well as the majority of the other social stakeholders, are not entirely aware of the changes that the crisis will provoke on the future. However, deep crises offer a great opportunity for improvement when people and institutions are fully conscious of their potential for a change. Hence, the crisis could be a great opportunity for a structural change of the cultural sector, both at the policy and at the organizational level. This paper aims at analysing some strategies for an improvement of the governance and management models in the cultural sector. Some relevant modifications of the governance and management approaches are suggested.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69755658","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}

Based on a comparison between British, French and Turkish channels the aim of this paper is to determine whether public channels perform better in terms of diversity than private ones. The paper recalls the reasons why public television channels should differentiate themselves from their private counterparts as far as diversity is concerned. A methodology for assessing diversity, which includes a set of indexes for measuring diversity of programming as well as tools for assessing disparity, is then proposed. Earlier literature finds that public television channels are more diverse than and significantly distinct from their private counterparts. In this exploratory study we will show that, contrary to the literature, public channels have no clear advantage in terms of diversity. Competitive pressure aimed at maximizing viewership plays a role for all channels regardless of their mode of funding, thus leading to greater homogeneity of programming.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69755360","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}

For example, it could be valued from an economic, social, cultural or any anthropological perspective, depending upon the desired outcomes of the research. This article elaborates on a concept of defying artistic quality of the orchestra as the conductor’s leadership success. To specify the artistic quality of the orchestra the researcher relies on the model introduced by Boerner (2002) that has been further developed in this paper. The objective of the researcher is to further develop a model for the evaluation of performance quality in the framework of the artistic quality as the leadership success of the conductor. Comparing the results of acquired data in the first set of interviews and the model presented in Boerner’s study (2002), the researcher proposed a new version of the model for the artistic quality of the orchestra. Also, in designing the model, the researcher relied on her artistic experience as well as music training in highly recognized institution such as The Juilliard School in New York. It is also pertinent to this research that she received her graduate degree in collaborative music that provided her with in depth understating of ensemble playing. The results of this research aim to offer syllabus suggestions for majors in conducting, music education and art management at undergraduate as well as graduate levels. Conclusions are drawn both for leadership theories and for the selection and training of orchestral conductors.","PeriodicalId":40075,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Cultural Management and Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69755729","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}
