Abstract:
This chapter provides an empirical analysis of the economic effects of cultural and creative industries at the global scale using international input–output models. Based on an ambitious methodological strategy, it evaluates comparatively when and under which conditions creative specialisation generates higher value added. The findings help to temper overly optimistic narratives and offer robust evidence on the actual role of creativity in economic development.
