Abstract: | The realm of arts and culture can be seen as ephemeral and ill-suited to the ‘intrusion’ of quantitative analysis. Yet, demand
amongst end-users for economic research into cultural and creative industries is stronger today than ever it has been in the
past. Oddly, culture seems to both attract and resist economic analysis. Drawing on an analysis of recent research findings
related to multi-platform strategies in the television industry, this article examines what is distinctive about economics
of culture, and it assesses the appeals but also the challenges associated with conducting scholarly research work in this
particular area. |
