Creativity under competition and the overshooting problem -- 6. Creative labour markets and signalling -- 7. Identity dynamics and economic evolution -- 8. Social network markets -- 9.

Creative clusters and innovation -- 14. Novelty bundling markets -- 15. Creative industries and economic development -- 16. Conclusion The creative industries are key drivers of modern economies. While economic analysis has traditionally advanced a market-failure model of arts and culture, this book argues for an evolutionary market dynamics or innovation-based approach. The book explores theoretical and conceptual aspects of an evolutionary economic approach to the study of the creative economy. Topics include creative businesses and labour markets, social networks, innovation processes and systems, institutions, and the role of creative industries in market dynamics and economic growth |
