"The Creative Capital of Cities challenges the new urban growth concepts of creative
industries from a critical urban theory perspective. The author presents both technological
creativity in knowledge-intensive industries and artistical creativity in the cultural
economy sector in the analysis of the 'creative capital of cities'. Krätke develops
a transdisciplinary approach to the analysis of creativity and knowledge generation
in an urban context by combining perspectives of economic geography, regional research,
and socio-cultural urban studies. Providing deep insights backed up by rigorous empirical
analysis, The Creative Capital of Cities reveals the complex relational dimensions
of creativity while offering an alternate path to the assessment of urban economic
success"--Provided by publisher
