Thus, Spain represents a prominent and unique case in this trend, in which a state that inherited absolutism and centralist and authoritarian government, also adopted a decentralized model in cultural policy very quickly on its return to democracy. However, it did not take on a federal form of shared government but rather a decentralized government where the regions undertook active cultural actions. Nevertheless, as of the year 2000 and especially after the great recession of 2008, the Ministry of Culture, traditionally located in the capital, resumed the centralist path under a national construction program of a large hegemonic capital, namely Madrid. The undertaking of a research project and the analysis of secondary data lead us to the conclusion that the central government has progressively shelved cultural decentralization, adopting a hierarchical and unifying conception of cultural policy, that is, a cultural recentralization.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10632921.2020.1851838","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45294887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores how cultural democracy is achieved by collective mobilization. Our case study of Guggenheim Helsinki shows that rising cultural globalization triggered a social movement to resist diminishing representation of national identity. A bottom-up process of collective mobilization created pressures on policymakers to direct cultural policies toward maintaining the dominance of local culture. In particular, cultural democracy was delivered through public participation in the control of culture while rejecting cultural globalization.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10632921.2020.1851836","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47157861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Positioned in the literature on cultural and creative industries, it embraces a discourse perspective and in particular the concept of “polyphony” as an analytical lens. Empirically, the paper draws on a case study of a music association, in which the authors especially followed the production of a music festival. What emerges is a situation of pluralism of discourses, a variety of relations among these discourses, and fluidity of discourses across actors and roles, which lead the authors to question, at least in part, the presupposed artistic vs. business dualism within which cultural productions and creative industries are instead typically framed.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10632921.2020.1851837","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46627340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many also recognize that arts organizations must attend to these issues in their organizational practices in order to promote equity and disrupt historic power structures. Local Arts Agencies’ (LAAs) structural position as key regranters of federal and local funds makes them a key site of inquiry into the sector’s approach to cultural equity. This research asks: How is attention to individual social identity dimensions of cultural equity patterned in mission statements of LAAs? Of the 55 LAAs analyzed, 26 have a mission statement that includes attention to cultural equity, and of these, 17 list specific social identity groups to which they attend. Empirically, the article presents network visualizations and tabled co-occurrences of social identities toward the goal of understanding the clustering of social identity in the missions of LAAs. This study contributes to understanding how LAAs are considering identity-specific dimensions of equity in the missions of their organizations, trends in the patterning of these priorities, and identify the structural underpinnings of cultural equity in institutional priorities among LAAs in the United States.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10632921.2020.1845890","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42162485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For each area, the political environments were different, and the policy tools were differentiated, which demands reviewing them in cultural diplomacy separately. Visual art was a small yet controversial area of US cultural diplomacy in the early and mid-20th century, but art diplomacy during the Cold War is still commonly misunderstood as having been a centralized effort with substantial government funding. It impedes precise insight into the governmental and nongovernmental efforts in not only art diplomacy, but also general US cultural diplomacy. This research studies the decentralization of art diplomacy in the early and mid-20th century and examines the political environment toward art diplomacy and the policy tools, such as the third-party government in overcoming challenges. It investigates the political dynamics and characteristics of art diplomacy during the period and acknowledges the contribution and growth of nongovernmental actors in the field.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10632921.2020.1845891","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44135931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
