The city-state of Singapore commemorated its 50th year of independence in 2015. In that 50-year period, Singapore defied the odds by forging itself into an important media and communication hub, one that services the Asian region by linking it to other global media centres. This article examines Singapore’s efforts to develop its media sector over the years from a historical (and) policy perspective. The article begins by explaining how early policy discourses were bifurcated along internal versus external lines, where the development of a national media system to mould a fledgling society was the internal mission, while externally, the vision was to promote Singapore to the rest of the world as a reliable port (where media and cultural goods can be safely and reliable transported to/through) and teleport (where messages and satellite signals can be exchanged via reliable telecommunications infrastructure and uplink–downlink facilities). It was not until the early 2000s, with the launch of Media 21 and the Creative Industries Development Strategy (both in 2002), that the external mission began to dominate. In 2009, the Singapore Media Fusion Plan (SMFP) declared that Singapore would become a ‘Trusted Global Capital for New Asia Media’. While articulating that a strong media sector engenders a better understanding of Singapore culture, the latest policy does little to promote local culture. Instead, the cultural footprint of Singapore has expanded to include not just Asia, but ‘new Asia’, defined very problematically in the report as ‘newly confident Asian countries’ (p. 26). This article unpacks the ‘Asian media fusion’ discourse and contends that the positioning of Singapore as a 21st century media hub is arguably the most overtly economic media and cultural policy that Singapore has yet produced. It is clear that the media sector is a little more than a cluster of economic activity, where the goal of the government and the agencies involved is to boost Singapore’s status as the best business city. The media hub policy rationales have thus been, for better or worse, coherent with the Singapore government’s broader economic ideologies over the past 50 years and look set to continue into the foreseeable future.

This paper addresses creativity in a broad organisational field of knowledge relationships and transactions in a cultural economy. In considering key issues and debates across this complex field, the paper concentrates on the generic problems of investigating, understanding and influencing this cultural economy. The paper locates its consideration of these knowledge relationships and transactions in a discussion of a pioneering in-depth study of the creative industries in a region of the United Kingdom. Significantly, this study found these creative industries to be inhabiting an ecosystem of creative space and also found that the development strategy for these industries needed to be ecological. The paper concludes with several key challenges for research and policy in the building of situated and strategic knowledge on cultural economies.

<p>Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) have an important role and strategic for economic growth. This is because at the time of the economic crisis in Indonesia, SMEs are the economic sectors which have the most excellent durability. Wedoro Village in Sidoarjo city, Indonesia, is famous for the footwear creative industry especially slippers and shoes. A wide variety of slippers and shoes with different types available. Stores and outlets are widespread across the village. Wedoro region has been known as one of the predecessors of creative industries in the field of footwear. Currently the industrial centres of creative footwear is experiencing a decline in sales compared with its heyday in 2001-2006 years ago. This research aims to design a development strategy of the creative industry centre in Wedoro by using SWOT analysis and grand strategy. The results of this study indicate that the cause of the decline in sales is a flood of Chinese products, rising raw material prices, and the lack of innovation in product design. Hence, creative industry in Indonesia especially in Wedoro Village might need a guidance from the government in developing innovation in product design and marketing. It is therefore expected that the existence of a creative industry in Wedoro can grow and create occupations especially for local residents and also increase the revenue of the Sidoarjo city.</p>

<p>In the 1970s, urban regeneration processes that took place in many industrialised inner-city cores  initiated a new economic and cultural vitality that made a departure from an industrial past, on  towards a post-industrial future. Today, these postindus- trial cities are home to the 'creative  industries', in which through their development, economic and social benefits have become  increasingly visible. Hence, urban planners and policy makers worldwide are working to create  strategies to ensure certain places become or remain 'creative places.' Richard Florida’s work has  become particularly influential within the creative development discourse, as has Charles Landry’s.  But as the first wave of creative development planning and policy implementation wanes, important  questions are emerging. It is by now clear that most creative development approaches in the attempt  to create an 'ideal creative place', have only yet focused on the inner-city core. In this research, the focus is shifted away from the inner-city to where most people of the  developed world live: the suburbs. The thesis therefore, asks how a suburb can better provide for  its suburban creative class, support creative processes and regenerate into a creative place. This  is explored by the formulation of a creative development strategy for Johnsonville; a suburb within  Wellington City of New Zealand. The research’s findings suggest that within any suburban creative  development agenda, there should be: - An underlying urban development plan that sets out measures in strengthening the suburb’s  Diversity, Connectivity and Authenticity; - An explicit attempt in supporting creative enterprises and their functioning, such as proposing ‘Creative Cluster’ formations and associated ‘Incubation’ facilities; - An overall consciousness for the suburban community’s social cohesion and wellbeing. The usefulness of this research and its findings lies within the practise of urban planning,  design, and policy implementation, offering a theoretical basis and template for the evaluation and  development of suburb’s urban creativity.</p>

The purpose of the article is to study the potential of cultural services in the new socio-economic conditions and in the context of the decentralization reform of Ukrainian society. The methodology is to apply such methods as comparative analysis and synthesis to characterize cultural services both in Ukraine and abroad; philosophical and logical to reveal the modern potential of cultural services in the new socio-economic conditions. The scientific novelty of the work is that the problems of innovative development of Ukraine, in particular in terms of technological systems, were analyzed and the role of culture, creative industries and cultural services in the development of modern society was clarified. Conclusions. At the present stage, the problems of innovative development of Ukraine are actualized precisely by technological methods. In turn, in the era of globalization, culture is becoming a «lifeline» that can bring society out of economic and social stagnation, and creative industries contribute to the creation of new innovative markets. Today, the development of creative industries is an important task for many countries, and creativity is a key point for a society based on knowledge and an efficient economy, as it significantly contributes to the development of various spheres of life and the country as a whole. In Ukraine, decentralization reform opens up great prospects for development for communities, as most small towns have significant tourist, recreational, cultural, historical and natural potential, and therefore there is a need to develop their own development strategy in the new socio-economic conditions. Meanwhile, the decentralization reform has contributed to the revitalization of primary cultural (club) infrastructure, including cultural hubs, which contributes to the creation of high-quality cultural goods and services to meet the cultural needs of the community. Ukraine also already has interesting examples of transforming former factories into creative hubs, including «Art Factory Platform», «UNIT.City», «Art Factory Mechanics», «Lem Station» and «!FESTrepublic» etc. However, in Ukrainian society the issue of discussing and approving a «minimum cultural basket» remains unresolved, which will contribute to the formation of single information and cultural space and provide guarantees for the population in obtaining cultural services and equal access to them.

On 26 September 2002, as Singapore faced up to its worst economic year since attaining full political independence in 1965, the Creative Industries Working Group (CIWG) of the Economic Review Committee (ERC), a governmentappointed, high-level body tasked with identifying future economic growth sectors and opportunities for Singapore, unveiled its report entitled Creative Industries Development Strategy: Propelling Singapore's Creative Economy (CIWG, 2002). This was the first time the voguish concept of the 'creative industries' had been publicly acknowledged and embraced in Singapore. It is believed that the development of a 'creative cluster' – or a creative network comprising the arts and cultural sector, the design sector and the media industry – would propel Singapore's new innovation-driven economy by 'industrializing' the cultural (and culture-related) sectors in Singapore. Among other envisaged outcomes, this policy aims to encourage risk-taking and entrepreneurship and to attract creative 'talents' to locate in Singapore. Whilst the notion of the 'creative industries' has been objectively modelled after global trends and policies, its application in a society notorious for its censorious political and cultural climate is fraught with problems. This article offers a critical examination of this new creative industries policy direction spearheaded by the Singapore government, and considers the economics and politics of creativity in what is being presented as the 'new' Singapore of the twenty-first century.

AbstractTheory suggests that cultural and creative industries (CCIs) cluster in cities where levels of socio-economic development are higher and where they can take advantage of the city’s hard and soft infrastructure. However, some South African rural areas and small towns have identified CCIs as potential economic drivers. This paper investigates the relationship between the presence of CCIs in non-metropolitan spaces and levels of socio-economic development using a municipal level socio-economic status index and GIS mapping. The results show a positive relationship between larger numbers of CCIs and higher levels of development. It is suggested that a threshold level of development must be met before CCIs will cluster in an area and become a viable option for promoting local economic development.
