More about the book
Focusing on the interplay between urban policies and creativity, the book examines how the Creative City concept inadvertently sparks subcultural and subversive activities. It argues that while official policies lack mechanisms to foster creativity, they provoke a reactive creativity within subcultures that challenge the prevailing political and economic frameworks. Through this lens, the author highlights the importance of urban subversions in redefining the notion of creativity in contemporary cities.
