Item Metadata only Analysing cultural policy: incorrigbly plural or ontologically incompatible?(Routledge, 2010-05) Gray, CliveApproaches to the study of cultural policy are currently tied to particular disciplines. This can lead to a failure to appreciate the real differences between these disciplines in terms of what they are investigating, and how they go about these investigations. The differences that exist at ontological, epistemological and methodological levels between differing disciplines mean that it is not possible to simply adopt what each discipline is saying about cultural policy at face value. Without greater theoretical and methodological understanding of the tools that are available for the analysis of cultural policy it is unlikely that a more sophisticated approach to analysis will be generated. The consequences of this for both the analysis of cultural policy and future directions of analysis in the field are discussed.Item Metadata only Are governmental culture departments important?

The adoption of New Public Management (NPM) did not mean a total overhaul of the system, but meant that the State took back some power of decision and control through a specialized Department, created originally in 1992. This Department has asked funding bodies to adopt new management methods which are aimed at their beneficiaries as well... Attempts have also been made to formalise and modify local government support for the arts. The implementation of NPM to the arts sector proved to be complex. The assessment criteria that were adopted were criticized by most administrators and artists alike for being inadequate and simplistic when applied to this sector. The effectiveness of the new framework is assessed in the context of the recent growing support for public spending in the arts from a traditionally sceptical public. The new management, accompanied by budget increases, has led to an instrumentalisation of the arts sector through attachment and this can be equated more generally with a trend towards the commodification of the arts.Item Metadata only Local government and the arts.(Taylor & Francis, 2002-03-01) Gray, CliveItem Open Access Managing adversity in the British art support system(The Boekman Foundation, Amsterdam, 2011) Gray, Clive; Jordan, JennieItem Metadata only Managing cultural policy: Pitfalls and prospects.(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009) Gray, CliveCultural policies have become increasingly used by governments to fulfil a large number of policy requirements. The extent to which such policies are capable of being effective in fulfilling governmental goals is open to doubt as there are considerable definitional, methodological, analytical and structural difficulties associated with such policies. This paper identifies and analyses these difficulties and indicates that there are considerable pitfalls in the way of attempts to develop, manage and implement effective cultural policies.Item Metadata only Managing the unmanageable: the politics of cultural planning.(SAGE, 2006-07-01) Gray, CliveItem Metadata only The Millennium Dome: 'falling from grace'.(Oxford University Press, 2003-07-01) Gray, CliveItem Metadata only Museums, galleries, politics and management.(Sage, 2011) Gray, CliveItem Open Access The politics of arts and cultural policy(De Montfort University, 2003) Gray, Clive
