Description

Explore the complex relationship between economics and cultural funding with this academic text from Routledge. This book addresses fundamental questions regarding whether the arts can survive within a modern capitalist society and examines the rationale behind public intervention. By looking at how government and public resources are used to support the arts, the text provides a deep look into the mechanisms of cultural funding. Using a Veblenian approach to economic development, the author investigates the nature of public support to see if this specific economic lens can clarify why and how the arts receive funding. This work is part of the Routledge Advances in Heterodox Economics series, making it a valuable resource for those studying the intersection of economic theory and the business of art. It offers a unique perspective on the evolution of public support and the role of predatory arts within an economic framework.
