as, for example, citizenship, culture, diaspora, ethnicity, minority,
stereotype, stranger, universalism, but include also burning issues in
contemporary societies such as cultural identity, positive discrimination,
intercultural education, globalisation, multiculturalism, social justice,
etc. Also more complex subjects like culture and development, or culture and
economy are treated in depth. The entries are arranged in alphabetical
order, every entry is complemented by a short bibliography.

"Droits culturels et développement, à la recherche de
principes d'indication". In: Borghi; Meyer-Bisch (eds.): La pierre
angulaire -- le 'flou crucial' des droits culturels. Fribourg :
Editions Universitaires, 2001, (ISBN 2-8271-0921-2), p. 315-362
This contribution discusses the theoretical foundations for indicators of
cultural rights in relation to development, reflecting the ongoing research
undertaken at the University of Fribourg in this field. The dense text is
structured into three parts according to the three areas of difficulties,
namely at conceptual, legal and methodological levels. Thus, based on the
analysis in the first two parts, the authors highlight the importance of an
empowering, people-cantered approach to development, the need to grant
cultural rights to individuals and not to communities, and the plurality of
actors facilitating rights. In the third part, starting from a discussion of
previous research on social and cultural indicators, they put forward three
basic rights which are crucial for the processes of cultural creation and
transmission, namely the right to education, the right to information and
the right to civic participation. Cultural rights indicators have to be
structured by the three dimensions of culture, namely creation,
transmittable heritage and capital, and the relation to a cultural identity.

"From cultural to creative industries : an analysis of the implications
of the 'creative industries' approach to arts and media policy making in the
United Kingdom". In: International journal of cultural policy
Vol. 11, no. 1 (March 2005), p. 15-29 (ISSN 1028-6632)
This article analyses the implications of the terminological shift from
cultural to creative industries for cultural policy making. The expression
was coined in the United Kingdom and has been used in particular by the
British government under "New Labour" since 1997. The author presents an
in-depth analysis of the various schools of thought concerning the cultural
industries and related policies, starting from the critique of the Frankfurt
School. In front of this background, he illustrates that the shift to the
creativity label is not just a way of stressing the economic dynamics of the
cultural sector, but is also closely linked to information and communication
technologies. In fact, the emphasis on creativity, innovation and
intellectual property allowed an association with software and other
copyright industries. In his concluding analysis, the author points out that
the public support towards the creative industries is justified in terms of
information society policy rather than of an arts policy which should be concerned with
the consumption aspect as well.
Keywords: cultural industry - cultural objectives - policy making -

La pierre angulaire -- le 'flou crucial' des droits culturels.
- Fribourg : Editions Universitaires, 2001. - ix, 400 p. - ISBN
2-8271-0921-2
(Collection interdisciplinaire ; n° 28)
This volume approaches cultural rights as the missing link ("cornerstone")
between unity and diversity in democratic societies in which national
borders do not match the cultural ones. The contributions in the first part
look at the efforts at international level (Council of Europe, UNESCO, etc.)
to enclose cultural rights in the human rights system. In his general
overview, the editor shows how the efforts towards integrated cultural
policy making, respect of cultural diversity and the consideration of
culture in sustainable development highlight the growing indirect
recognition of cultural rights. The articles in the second part deal with
violations and specific applications of cultural rights. The third section
is dedicated to the relationship between individual rights and communities.
The fourth one deals with practical issues such as implementation of
cultural rights in national cultural policies and measurement. Annexes
include the main international texts, also the draft ones.

Notre Europe; Boucher, Stephen (ed.)
Europe and its think tanks -- a promise to be fulfilled : an analysis
of think tanks specialised in European policy issues in the enlarged
European Union. - [Paris] : Notre Europe, 2004. - 147 p. + annexes
(Studies and research ; 35)
This survey of think tanks specialised in European policy issues draws a
picture of those institutes who set out to shape or influence the ideas and
policies of the European project. The authors develop criteria for the
definition of think tanks (such as an in-house research team), discuss their
role for European integration and highlight their scarce visibility. The
next part provides an overview of the think tank landscape in the 25 EU countries and
their research interests, also in form of country profiles, drawing
on websites, reports, as well as on interviews with think tank members, EU
politicians and journalists. Less then 5% of the think tank surveyed
concentrate on culture and education. The annexes of the English version
offer a synoptic presentation of the 149 think tanks analysed for the
survey. The entries are arranged by country and include also contact
details. Available online in PDF:

"Creative exports -- taking cultural industries to St Petersburg".
In: International journal of cultural policy Vol. 11, no. 1 (March
2005), p. 45-60 (ISSN 1028-6632)
This article analyses the difficulties to transpose the creative city model
to post Soviet Russia, considering both economic and cultural factors.
Drawing on the findings of two TACIS projects targeted towards the
development of a cultural industries strategy for St. Petersburg, the author
presents the attitudes in Russia towards cultural change in general, and to
cultural industries and popular culture in particular, and highlights the
reluctance of Russian cultural administrators to combine art and industry,
culture and commerce in defence of national (high) culture. He then
describes the United Kingdom's approach to cultural industries which links
creative consumption and production at local level through the networked
clustering of small business and freelancers. Looking at the structural
constraints hampering the implementation of this approach in Russia, he
identifies the lack of a supportive environment for small businesses, the
underdevelopment of "civil society", the regulatory restrictions for
cultural organisations, non-application of contract and intellectual
property law. In his concluding analysis, he stresses that the penetration
of Western goods has not led in Russia to the transformation of global
products by local cultures, and briefly discusses related risks and
solutions.
Keywords: cultural industry - urban areas - Russian Federation -

Pratt, Andy C.
"Cultural industries and public policy -- an oxymoron?". In:
International journal of cultural policy Vol. 11, no. 1 (March 2005), p.
15-29 (ISSN 1028-6632)
This article deals with cultural industries as policy object and discusses
their governance options. The author starts with a conceptual ground
clearing by reviewing the definitions of cultural industries. He then goes
on to analyse the notion of culture in the overlapping approaches to
cultural (industries) policy making. He identifies three different cultural
discourses: the economic, the ideological/political and the social one.
Articulating these three discourses with three forms of governance in the
sense of institutional responses - markets, states and self-organisation -
the author proposes an instrument to analyse the various policy options.
Moreover, this model offers also possibilities which have not yet been
explored by policy makers and which might address the hybrid nature of
cultural production more adequately than traditional choices.
Keywords: cultural industry - government policy - cultural objectives
- policy making - cultural theory - markets - state - self government

-- le 'flou crucial' des droits culturels. Fribourg : Editions
Universitaires, 2001, (ISBN 2-8271-0921-2), p. 31-39
This contribution traces the work of the Council of Europe in the field of
cultural rights. The author starts by presenting the specifically cultural dimensions
of
the European Convention on Human Rights and the European Cultural
Convention. He then goes on to describe the efforts of the Council of
Cultural Co-operation (CDCC) between 1978 and 1984 to enshrine the cultural
rights in a normative instrument, looking in particular at the project of
the European Cultural Charter. Although this failed due to lack of political
consensus, cultural rights remained, on the one hand, a topic for culture
and education (for example in the project of democratic citizenship), and
were, on the other, considered in the standard-setting texts of other parts
of the Organisation (for example in the European Charter for Regional or
Minority Languages). Concluding, the author highlights three areas in the
present work of the Organisation in which cultural rights - attached to
individuals - have a role to play: cultural diversity, empowerment of
cultural actors in cultural networks, and the identity-forming function of
cultural heritage in a changing Europe.
Keywords: cultural rights - Council of Europe activities -
international instruments - human rights - historical aspect - cultural

l'homme. - Paris : Editions UNESCO, 2000. - 333 p. - ISBN
92-3-203555-3
(Les droits de l'homme en perspective)
This collection of essays reflects a variety of different views on cultural
rights, their current state and future development. Due to distinct
conceptions of culture - culture as capital, culture as creativity and
culture as a way of life - cultural rights are seen either as individual
rights (access to culture, the artist's rights, etc.) or as collective
rights. The contributions focus on the rights of minorities and indigenous
peoples, including land rights, language rights and customary law.
Keywords: compilation - cultural rights - international instruments -
cultural theory - artists - cultural minorities - ethnic groups -
traditional cultures - biological diversity - cultural property preservation
- intellectual property - cultural pluralism - tolerance - UNESCO -
