Good Governance for Cultural Policy

An African-European Research about Arts and Development

by Wolfgang Schneider (Volume editor) Daniel Gad (Volume editor)
©2014 Conference proceedings 296 Pages

Summary

Culture is seen as a source for the development of society. Task of cultural policy is therefore to create and support structures that promote mobilization of creativity of the people and thus ensure welfare, innovation and pluralism. Such relationships have been discussed at the level of UNESCO for the past forty years. Within Germany and Europe as well as on the African continent experiences and initiatives are increasing in order to put discourse on cultural policies into practice. There is a need to provide a forum for the exchange of concepts and to identify the state of the art of theory and practice within the concepts of good governance and cultural policy. It is essential to clarify the role and the needed context of the arts, of art education and of individual artists in the development of society.

New Art Territories

A Small “h” Story

Yannick Butel

Speaking of “new art territories” could turn out somehow a bit unconventional, as you may have noticed, nowadays the so called “new” territories multiplied. Nevertheless, this inflation of premises, extensions, rehabilitation and architectures or, and also, practices linked to technologies perfectionism do not really inform us on “art new territories”, we will conveniently come back to this subject later, after our attempt to analyze, may criticize, the “new” concept.
