Description

In an era of intensifying globalization and transnational connectivity, the dynamics of cultural production and the very notion of creativity are in transition. Exploring creative practices in various settings, the book does not only call attention to the spread of modernist discourses of creativity, from the colonial era to the current obsession with 'innovation' in neo-liberal capitalist cultural politics, but also to the less visible practices of copying, recycling and reproduction that occur as part and parcel of creative improvization. Review "The editors' and contributors' point about the relative and collaborative nature of creativity is well made in the volume, and the ethnographic examples shine interesting light on diverse corners of culture while pinpointing a number of shared issues." - Anthropology Review Database "This book is an important contribution to the growing literature on appropriation and the aesthetics of change. Conceiving creativity as process rather than outcome is the key argument of the book whose contributors discuss the argument in numerous ways and case studies." - Peter Probst, Tufts University About the Author Maruška Svašek is Reader in Anthropology at the School of History and Anthropology at Queens University, Belfast.
