• Flexible labor markets
Spatial components: metropolis and decay
Changingperspectives:Long‐term /top‐downBottom‐up cooperativeinitiatives• Jacobs• Bourdieu• Florida
EU Policy

• ' Old School ' no longer valid: innovation = needed
• The economic powerof the cultural and creativeindustries
Cultural and creative industries
‘Cultural industries’: goods or services that embody cultural expressions,irrespective commercial value: film, DVD, video, television and radio, video games, new media, music, books and press, performing arts, visual arts.‘Creative industries’ : use culture as an input , whose outputs are mainly functional: architecture, advertising, gaming, design and fashion.’

Contribution Cultural/Creative sector
• UNCTAD: Creative Economy Report 2010• EU: See EDCCI Page 102
A dynamic and fast‐growing industry, even in tough economic timesThe resilience during the economic crisis: • job creation in CCIs grew on average by 3.5% from 2000 to 2007
• continued to grow at 0.7% annually between 2008 and 2012• even as the number of jobs in the rest of the economy fell 0.7%

Product characteristics
• Creative inputs and products are abundant• Hypercompetitive environment• Succes is uncertain: ‘nobody knows’• Knowledge‐based and labour‐intensive input• Not ‘simply merchandise’, but express cultural uniqueness and identities
• Experience goods; production and consumption ‘on the spot’
• Product life‐cycles are often short
Labour Market Characteristics• Labour market of the CCIs is complex• Thrives on numerous small initiatives• Career wise a high degree of uncertainty • A high share of freelancers and very small
companies• Non‐conventional forms of employment; part‐time,
temporary contracts, self‐employment , free‐lancers• Multiple job‐holdings; combined other sources• Does not fit into typical patterns of full‐time pro’s• Heterogeneity of human resources categories;
higher professional training, vernacular backgrounds, craft industry, any other category
CCIs Market Conditions• Markets volatile and unpredictable• Demand will increase with exposure• Promoting business strategies that are embryonic, provisional, highly responsive
• Based on 'intuitive' and 'emotional' knowledge as much as standard market research
• Unpredictable demand conditions; ‘nobody knows’
• Entrepreneurs are price takers: accept the prices that result from supply and demand. None of the players has enough market power to “dictate” prices to the customer (price makers)

Do we need a theoretical framework?
Concepts are an abstraction of reality We cannot communicate without using
concepts about the reality Creates a certain unity in objects
described and definitions Offers a self-audit facility to ensure
cohesion and appropriate conceptualisation for conclusions.
