Creative Industries from an Evolutionary Perspective: A Critical Literature Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Although creative industries have been popular as a research topic among social scientists from various backgrounds, most studies lack an explicit evolutionary, history-informed perspective.

Although not all evolutionary concepts are useful, we conclude that co-evolution in particular has important potential in helping to explain the spatial dynamics of creative industries in a comparative perspective.
