“…On the other side, creativity is also embedded in concrete social contexts that shape its character and objectives in many different ways (cf. CSIKSZENTMIHALYI, 1990;HEMLIN et al, 2008;SEITZ, 2003). It is this second facet of the problem that is most pertinent to the present discussion, though assuredly one must not fall into an untenable dualism that separates these two moments of creativity into watertight compartments.…”

SCOTT A. J. Beyond the creative city: cognitive-cultural capitalism and the new urbanism, Regional Studies. Creativity is a concept whose time has come in economic and urban geography. It is also a concept that calls for enormous circumspection. An attempt is made to show that the interdependent processes of learning, creativity and innovation are situated within concrete fields of social relationships. Because much existing research on creative cities fails adequately to grasp this point, it tends to offer a flawed representation of urban dynamics and leads in many instances to essentially regressive policy advocacies. Cognitive-cultural capitalism is a more robust theoretical framework through which contemporary urbanization processes can be described. The framework of cognitive-cultural capitalism shapes the peculiar logic of learning, creativity and innovation that are observed in cities today but also has many wider and deeper impacts on urban outcomes. It has important policy implications so a critique of current policy stances derived from creative city ideas is also provided. SCOTT A. J. Más allá de la ciudad creativa: el capitalismo cognitivo-cultural y el nuevo urbanismo, Regional Studies. La creatividad es un concepto a la que le ha llegado su hora en la geografía económica y urbana. Es también un concepto que necesita una enorme circunspección. Aquí se intenta mostrar que los procesos interdependientes de aprendizaje, creatividad e innovación están situados en campos concretos de las relaciones sociales. Debido a que este aspecto no se entiende bien en muchos estudios sobre las ciudades creativas, se tiende a ofrecer una representación errónea de las dinámicas urbanas y esto conduce en muchos casos a defender políticas básicamente regresivas. El capitalismo cognitivo-cultural es un marco teórico más sólido mediante el que se pueden describir procesos de urbanización modernos. El marco del capitalismo cognitivo-cultural forma la lógica peculiar del aprendizaje, la creatividad y la innovación que se observan en las ciudades de hoy día, pero también tiene muchos efectos más amplios y profundos en los resultados urbanos. Debido a sus importantes repercusiones políticas, en este artículo se ofrece una crítica de las actuales posturas políticas que proceden de las ideas de la ciudad creativa.

aBStraCt. i begin with a rough sketch of the incidence of the cultural economy in US cities today. i then offer a brief review of some theoretical approaches to the question of creativity, with special reference to issues of social and geographic context. the city is a powerful fountainhead of creativity, and an attempt is made to show how this can be understood in terms of a series of localized field effects. the creative field of the city is broken down (relative to the cultural economy) into four major components, namely, (a) intra-urban webs of specialized and complementary producers, (b) the local labour market and the social networks that bind workers together in urban space, (c) the wider urban environment, including various sites of memory, leisure, and social reproduction, and (d) institutions of governance and collective action. i also briefly describe some of the path-dependent dynamics of the creative field. the article ends with a reference to some issues of geographic scale. Here, i argue that the urban is but one (albeit important) spatial articulation of an overall creative field whose extent is ultimately nothing less than global.

Aynı çalışma-da, yapılan araştırma makalesi sayısının yetersizliğine neden olarak katılımcıların %41.9'u zaman azılığını, %23.3'ü motivasyonun yetersizliğini, %20.9'u destek eksikliğini ve %13.9'u ise ilgisizliği göstermiştir.…”
