Samenvatting
In 'Bursting paradigms: a colour wheel of practice-researc', Sophie Hope explores practice research as a research paradigm and methodology, and tracks its history and position in relation to qualitative and qualitative approaches. In the second article, concerned with methodologies, the authors reflect on very different issues. Their “Rethinking value: network connectivity in the creative economy” considers approaches to collaborative knowledge exchange projects between UK universities and the creative economy. In doing so, they report on the work of the REACT Hub, one of four Knowledge Exchange Hubs for the Creative Economy established by AHRC. Third, Paul Moore’s article, “Big data and structural organisation in major arts bodies: an evolving ethnographic method” addresses the use and impact of so-called “Big Data” on arts organisations. Despite having developed data systems to be able to account for their impact to funding bodies, arts bodies have been slower than some business sectors to enter the data sphere and to contribute to the key debates. This issue also carries an article that questions the meritocracy of the creative industries, “Are the creative industries meritocratic? An analysis of the 2014 British Labour Force Survey”. Although the dominant policy narratives of Britain’s cultural and creative industries are that they open to all, this article investigates whether those from privileged class origins in fact, increasingly dominate those industries. The first large-scale, representative study of the class composition of Britain’s cultural workforce reveals a general under-representation of those from working class origins across the sector as a whole, and a “class origin pay gap”. |
