Samenvatting This editorial introduces a special edition of conjunctions that explores how cultural participation policies, projects, and practices could be improved through recognising the pervasiveness of past failures. it introduces current policy debates on cultural participation and posits that the dominant focus on ‘cultural deficits’ and ‘non-participants’ rather than on how activities are currently funded has resulted in a failure to increase the number and diversity of people participating in state subsidised cultural activities. it further suggests that a culture of evaluating success, rather than critically reflecting on failure, results in cultural participation policies and projects that replicate past failures and maintain an inequitable status quo |
