This issue brings together the second part of a selection of edited papers
which were presented at the Fourth International Conference on Cultural
Policy Research (ICCPR) in Vienna in July 2006. Worth attention:
- Stanbridge investigates the impact that a narrow understanding of
music has on cultural policy, as reflected in music funding, the
musical repertoire of live performances, and in recordings of the
publishing
industry (p.255-271).
- Zalfen examines the crisis of opera, looking at selected big opera
houses in Western Europe, and shows how this perception of -mainly
funding- problems reveals a model of communication in modern societies for the structural
changes in the cultural field (p.273-286).
- On the basis of two cases studies from Sweden, Lindquist analyses
the relationship between public administration and cultural management
and concludes that public governance has a negative impact on planning
and action (p.303-317).
